[Esa-l] Outgoing Mail

[Brent Wallis]

Hmmm, you know, the use of an email scanner such as this has most certainly
cut the costs of managing a network for many of my clients.
Problem is though,
an anecdote is worth as bout as much as a percentage to a suit..;-)
Has anyone ever quantified in any form the cost benefits of using something
like John's Software?
