Hi All,

A corporate environment is receiving a lot of spam e-mails like over 200++ a day and it's taking up a lot of mailboxes space unnecessarily. What measures will you take to counter this spam e-mails problem?

Would you install a firewall for example Fortigate firewall?
Would you considering to pay for the anti-spam services with your hosting company that host your domain account / email?
What other options do I have to deal with spams?

Please advise.
Thank you.

How many PC users are there in the corp environment?

Let a firewall be a firewall. In fact, built in anti spam in a firewall is not 100% foolproof.

Your email hosted yourself or in ISP?

My e-mail is hosted by a hosting company called Everworks.

The environment got about 30 PCs only.
