E-mail continuity

[loltim]

Guys,

what e-mail continuity systems are recommended these days, for Exchange servers?

I have in the past used a program called popcon, which will download e-mail from a separately created catchall mailbox on a different domain and deliver to the Exchange server when it's back online. Are hosting companies generally OK with you using their services as a backup? I know Heart Internet get a bit funny about it.

Just looking at http://www.messagestream.com/ - anyone used these? any other recommendations? What about GFI and MXsave.com?

What are you trying to do?

Catch email whilst your exchange is down?

Messagelabs in that case.

yes exactly.

I don't usually rate Symantec stuff. Have you personally used messagelabs?

That sounds expensive groen.

Sorry should have detailed in the first post. Our clients are small businesses, often 30 employees or less. (hence using popcon in the past).
