Borderware Mxtreme appliance
Borderware Mxtreme is one of the appliances that we found that was really good. We used both the Borderware antispam features aswell as the builtin module Brightmail antispam features. Besides beeing an antispam appliance, mxtreme is also an antivirus appliance aswell as it can deal with Anti-phishing issues.
The version which we tested was Mxtreme 5 we also took a look at the new version 6.0. 6.0 seems to be even better, even though we didn't really like the rotation of logfiles aswell. There were alot of other small items that we didn't quite like but overall this was proberbly the best product we tested.
Borderware
Borderware is also known for their firewall, and SIP firewall. The firewall is offently used by large companies, banks and the defense.
Borderware Mxtreme antispamappliance
Borderware antispamappliance uses features as Blacklist, Header rules, both strict and fuzzy body hash.
For us with an intrerest in security we can say that this antispamappliance is one of the few that has been qualified to get an EAL 4+ common criteria certification. It has an interesting feature for integrating with Exchange in order to have quarantine, sender lists etc.
I would say overall that this was the best antispamappliance that we tested and this was also the one that our customer bought.
The support that borderware offers is just outstanding.
Antivirusappliance
As we said before the Mxtreme can also be used as a antivirus appliance. Where mxtreme scans for viruses.
Besides using the zero day defense where they try to decide if the mail is a virus without scanning.
The antivirus engines that can be used is licensed seperatly and are Kaspersky and McAfee.
