OT: obscene message sizes and idiocy - a solution!

[Kroboth, Joe]

We are using greenview data 'spamstopshere' service.  About $1.00 a user per
month.  A lot of the filtering is done scanning not keywords but URLs. There
are 8 or 9 layers of filtering all user settable.  They stopped 86,000
messages from hitting our server just Since March 1st. About 800,000 since
January 1st.

We set our firewall to only allow SMTP connections from their servers.
Nothing sneaking in the back door.   

According to their web site they have minimums as low as $19.00 month.  The
filtering is excellent.

We agree completely. We've both just shared our positive experiences
with the list in the hope that some will find them useful, and yet
others will perhaps tell us about their solutions.
