Greetings everyone!

Im not exactly sure where I should post this - so I hope this is good.

We recently just got a barracuda spam filter and there are a couple of different configurations as far as where the filter should go on the network - ie. in front of the firewall/ DMZ/ or behind the firewall.

Which is the best method or what are the benefits of each? Which method is the most secure?

Thanks -

J5
