We sampled 1 days email (20 hrs) to see how it was performing – and the figures are amazing. Over 24000 emails hit our server, of which only 8% were legit! so over 22000 emails were junk – with the MPP filter blocking RBL (black list), Commtouch traced spam and ClamAV ID’d virus’ at the front door of our sendmail box. Some were rejected, some sent to SQL quarantine, and some passed through with no noticeable affect on the server boxes performance.Its incredible to think what end users would be getting in their mailbox each day if MPP wasnt there protecting the system.
