Check out Postini: http :// www .postini,com /
Long ago I made the corporate decision to filter all our corporate mail
through Postini. A few bucks per user per month, and we are blocking about
91% of all our inbound email.
In January we received 1.7 million emails.
We rejected 1.3 million as known spam.
Quarantined a quarter million as suspected spam.
Delivered 163,539.
If it takes users one second to deal with each spam message, the blocked
messages represent 433 user hours per month. At a conservative $150/hour
burden rate, our Postini service is saving us $65,000 per month.

I'm curious: does this calculation take into account "false positives"? On
two occasions this past year, I had to discover that emails had falsely been
consigned to the spam folder, causing delays, frustration and certainly
extra cost in ringing up various people to check on possibly lost emails and
their content.

No, this does not take into account false positives, though we have no
current open tickets for missing email.
