PTP Blog

a few too many slipping past mailfoundry today

last week, PTP moved over to a hosted anti-spam solution with Mailfoundry.

The first week, we were very happy with the service - it reduced spam to almost zero messages over pretty much the whole week.

Today has been a different story - in the last two hours, I've seen 10 spam messages.  Granted, 10 isn't a lot given the volume I was getting prior to move to Mailfoundry, but its still more than I want to see.

I know that some days, you'll be on the positive side of aggregated spam filtering, and other days you'll be on the negative side, so things will probably go back to a nice low level of spam in the next few hours.  Still, I'd started to hope that the rest of my life would be close to spam free, and even with Mailfoundry, it seems that won't be the case.

A month later what has been your experience with MailFoundry? We are interested in doing the 30 day trial in our company. We are using ASSP and it is taking a lot of IT and general staff effort.
after that small period of time where we saw a small uptick in spam, Mailfoundry has been great - I'd definitely suggest looking at it.
