"MailFoundry continues to innovate with new anti-spam technologies while the rest of the industry struggles with older systems that are failing against today's new spam threats. The technology in MailFoundry isn't found in any other competing anti-spam solution on the planet giving our customers the decisive edge in winning the war on spam, viruses, fraud and identity theft."
