I don't know quite how high a performance you need. If it's just email =
spam/viruses you are concerned with, you can run MailScanner for free, =
see http://www.mailscanner.info. It's been around for 10 years now =
and used by a lot of big organisations, many of which are listed on the =
web site. Written by a colleague here at University of Southampton, =
hence the plug. If you install and run it yourself, there's a good =
community mail list for support and tips.
If you want a commercial version then Fort Systems (http://www.fsl.com) =
can do that, and they also have a companion product BarricadeMX that's a =
pretty decent pre-filter system.
