Default Sidewinder appliance

Got a potential client who's after an appliance that can deal with anti-spam, anti-virus, IDS etc, email content filtering, web filtering and so on. Our competitors are chipping in with IronPort and SurfControl. Has anyone used Sidewinder or can suggest an alternative?

TIA

I've been testing a SonicWall E-Mail Security appliance since January and I'm impressed with it so far.

Would need two appliances though - firewall for IDS, CF and the EMS for anti-spam - are they dead set on a single appliance?

Hi Chris

Single appliance? Probably as other features required include fail over, clustering etc.

Got a Sidewinder on eval - see how that goes.
