I'm researching a new build of my mailserver. I'd like to figure out what's the best option for dealing w/ Antispam / AV, as well as the other processes..
I know of 2 major choices- do it your self, or outsource. I'm not looking to outsource the entire thing, though.. just AV/AS. 1. Outsource: Postini, or other providers. I'm open to suggestions - do people like them? Do they price based on inbound address, or domain, or volume? (I've got very few actual addresses, but that's mostly because there are a bunch of aliases. Aliases will likely show up as email addresses to them, though.) There are 2 non-profits being hosted, which might make it easier to justify going outside, if there are discounts for them. 2. Do it myself. I'm fairly happy to do it myself, and will need most of it anyways - but am trying to figure out which policy daemon to use for postfix. Have people started using the multi instance postfix support? Milters? or just use amavisd-new, etc. Or maybe Mailscanner.. I suspect that dovecot is the way I'll go, just for a change from Courier on the old server. Yes, it's somewhat silly to do this myself. But I can't go ahead and keep up w/ the tech for mailservers at work if I don't keep running one at home. Plus I host a few other domains for friends, and nonprofits. We would likely use Postini for mail at work, so it's not so bad to use it at "home"..
