Mario,

Try some of these providers:

www.brightmail.com

www.frontbridge.com

www.postini.com

Keep in mind there are some full-featured products that will do the job
at far less annual expense than the above. GMS (www.gordano.com), Horde
(OSS/GPL) (www.horde.org), SLMail (http://www.bvrpusa.com)
<http://www.bvrpusa.com)> all offer
features that are price competitive with the hosted service providers.
OTOH, as you note, with the hosted solutions you have far less to worry
about.

Has anyone in the group considered outsourcing e-mail services? With
licensing agreements, viruses and spam, it is getting hard to manage in
house.

Does anybody have recommendations on companies that offer these services?

Thank you!

As long as you do not host or control your own web site, you could use
Versign or Network Solutions. The email boxes cost $20 per year and they
come with a 10MB limit. If you POP your mail often though, you should
never hit the limit.

Thank you, David.

How about virus scans and spam? I really would like to have these features
managed as well.

May also want to take a look at http://email.atacomm.com/

As well as a new service coming out from Atacomm called ResvNet will also be
available sometime soon: www.resv.net

Has Email services, spam guard, antivirus services built in as well as
online contact management, calendar services, newsletters, online storage,
financial services, online shopping services, payment services, and so on.

But for now, http://email.atacomm.com is just the email version of this,
another link to look at if you want.
