    For what it's worth, postini is designed for two sorts of companies:

    Company A: Tons of money, nothing to do with it.
    Company B: No knowlegde of how to run unix servers.

    Honestly, anybody who considers themselves competent whatsoever at a
    command line who also pays postini their ridiculous monthly fees, is
    wasting a considerable amount of money.

    Amavisd-new has made implementing top-notch virus and spam filtering
    trivial. Heck, it even has the ability to lookup per-recipient filtering
    policies and whitelists/blacklists in a mysql database, an absolutely
    essential component for ISPs.
