yeah,
We do hosting for about 300,000 users in our shared environment. They have =
forwarders setup or aliases that send to their external addresses. This for=
wards their spam as well. We purchased quite a few barracuda servers and be=
came their case study for outbound units. They actually do a really good jo=
b at blocking the spam. But as spam changes every minute, we can only get u=
pdates every hour. The mail forwarders is the only spam that come from our =
network. Try subscribing to hotmails reporting services so you get reports =
on spam from your IP address, and they have the online reports that show if=
you add your AS so you can see a report for all ip's in your network.

Hi Micheal,
We do host mail for about 100 companies, but no remailing.
