Hi Jim
Our Advance spam and virus scanning servers provide a good solution for what
you are looking for
You have access to the control panel to update whitelists, blacklists etc,
the email is routed to their destination server (exchange in this case)
And all you have to do is change their mx records
If you would like to discuss this, please let me know
Thanks
Dale
