All, I was hopefull to get some advice from this awesome community. A client of ours is getting fed up with Postini ever since google bought them out. I was wondering if anyone had experience with both and could give some good feedback on them. Regards, Richard Bessey

The overall cost and lack of tech support on Postini is the complaint. Also, we have problems where a spammer will spam a user that does not have an anti-spam postini account. The mail is goes through postini, and postini sends the spam so fast, it hoses our e-mail server and it cannot keep up, causing an e-mail outage. I have looked and came up empty handed finding a "throttle" feature so postini only forwards so many mails an hour. Suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated

That is a problem of your server, not postini. Postini seems able to keep up with the amount of SPAM you receive, your server doesn't. Just get the $3/year postini spam protection and you are set.
