"Two improvements that are needed include an enhancement in the proxy feature, as well as the ability to more fully automate patches and updates."
"Solution requires regular checking to ensure it's 'keeping up' with spam."
"Barracuda Email Security Gateway can improve reporting and anti-spam. The anti-spam engine is not working well. We are seeing a lot of problems where spam is going through the gateway.

We are forced to give our IT support administrative access in order to clear and deliver emails and this should not be happening."
