While we are on this topic: has anyone got any experience of (or know
anything about) a commercial product supplied by a firm called
Brightmail? Their web site
www.brightmail.com contains some
information but nothing very specific about what the product does and
how it works, though it looks as if they supply a server and you are
supposed to pass mail through it for virus scanning.
I've been asked to look at this, so any information will be welcome!
