[wellylug] SpamAssassin/Virus checking 'before' Exchange Server

[Glen Ogilvie]

Hi Jamie,

I have first hand with setting up a linux server to remove spam, using 
SpamAssassin, Mail Scanner and a virus scanner, as I recently setup one in a 
production environment. (processes thousands of mails each day)

I could be interested in setting this up for your company, or you are welcome 
to talk to me about you doing so.

Cheers
Glen Ogilvie
