Nick,

I'm not sure I replied to this.  I could provide this software and
installation and updates on a commercial basis, to run either on your
Linux mail server or on a Linux Firewall or router between the mail server
(whatever platform the mail server might be) and the Internet.

Please do contact me if you wish to explore this possibility further.
