[TriLUG] email content filtering

[Jon Carnes]

First of all Trend supports Linux:

Secondly (not that I'm trolling for business...) but I do consulting
work and I do support SpamAssassin and MailScanner. If your manager
would like, I would be pleased to present him with a Mail scanning
solution that is comparable to Brightmail.

There is also a local corporation that supports SpamAssassin as well as
many other OpenSource applications (no not RedHat, though they do...):

Good Luck and keep fighting the good fight!
