Mailscanner + spamassassin + clamav package
-
How would this compare versus establishing a Windows 2010 Edge Transport mail server in a dmz to filter spam to the Hub Transport?
Take a look on features that postfix, mailscanner, spamassassin has to block spam.
Here are some options you can configure:
-
spf lookup
-
anti zombie daemon
-
strong header verification
-
only process valid exchange recipients
-
Rbl checks before message body transfer
-
phishing scan
-
Bayes,ryzor,pyzor,dcc scans
-
acls to deny or reject messages based on headers, subject, body, attachments, etc
-
message content protection(mcp) features to protects company's data
-
web bugs message scan
OT but my experience of any Windows anti-spam filtering (forefront im looking at you) fails dismally.
I have no idea about microsoft antispam features. I use a unix server in front of exchange server for about 10 years.

likewise, actually close on 15 years now. The reason I mention this is because a fairly large hosted exchange environment required a unix layer to handle the spam as the MS portion was just not cutting it.

I've tried access this url from many random web proxies and all listed site content.
can you try changing you dns server to 8.8.8.8 (google)?
-
I got the page to view
-
We run pfblocker on the firewall - disabled it and the page appears - I wonder which list your site is on?
Regards
Andrew

Spoke too soon - yes I can see the page - but still unable to install the package - exact same fail message "unable to download"
Andrew
-
Tried to download the package manually - Clamd rejected access to the page?

The host is in Brazil, maybe you applied deny both on top spammers list.
-
Tring to put an exception for your site above the pfblock list - otherwise I might have to be less harsh on what is blocked!
The package now seems to be installed OK - time to start tuning!

There are good guys on Brazil too ;)
You can change pfBlocker top spammers action to alias online and then block access only to port 25.
