I have a favour to ask...
We've recently been looking into alternatives to the IronPort anti-spam network appliances that we use for our customer-facing anti-spam platform.
One potential alternative is an MTA supplied by a company called Cloudmark. This MTA uses Cloudmark Authority to identify, manage and effectively deal with junk/virus email traffic (similar to IronPort's 'Senderbase' reputation filters).
Cloudmark looks to do a good job of balancing cost against functionality, and it's also geared towards service providers rather than corporate environments (other solutions tend to focus on the latter).
Initial investigations suggest that Cloudmark will integrate well into our systems and will also help reduce the amount of spam traffic that leaves our network.
We're not definitely moving to Cloudmark, however we would like to repoint a handful of customers' email traffic through the devices to get a feel for how things will work.
This is where you guys come into it!
If you'd like to help us out then can you reply to this thread giving your consent?
We'll probably look at making the changes next Thursday and they'll be in place for at least a week. All we really want to get a feel for is whether or not you notice any major differences (all being well, you won't).
Those using IronPort's Quarantine functionality will probably want to step out of this one as I don't think that will work once your mail's been repointed. It's also pretty critical that you have spam filtering turn on rather than disabled.
The Manage My Mail interface /should/ retain most of its functionality and the spam controls should also work too. Whilst it's highly unlikely you'll lose any email, please do be mindful that this is relatively new to us, so the usual caveats you'd associate with a trial apply.
We're hoping to get around 15-20 participants as a minimum, but we'll happily accept more.
Thanks!

I think the link for Cloudmark Authority should be this one.

Well spotted! I've updated the URL in my original post.

Just to let you know in Bob's absence that the work to move triallists over to Cloudmark is being carried out this evening. The impact of this most likely won't be evident until after midnight tonight.

Plusnet Cloudmark Gateway will receive the message from the sending server.
and instead of lines such as

X-IronPort-Anti-Spam-Result:
you will find

X-CNFS-Analysis
