Verizon Business e-mail SPAM Issues

by rlmink . Updated 18 years, 2 months ago

I am the sole tech support/admin guy at a SMB. Verizon as our ISP. I do not have or want to have an Exchange Server on site. Our e-mail is basically outsourced to the ISP. The comm line is an SDSL. Since I 1st went to the DSL line the vendor folded once without any notice. The subsequent vendor was in business for a while, then absorbed into WorldCom/MCI and now a division of Verizon. I really do not want to go through the exercise of switching ISPs and re-establishing e-mail accounts on 23 users.
The issue I have is two fold:
1. Verizon does NOT provide any SPAM filtering.
2. E-mail sent from their mail servers is considered SPAM by many ISPs and the messages are blocked.

Does anyone have suggestions to rid myself of the annoyances besides switching the ISP? If I did switch, who would be a viable reliable business ISP for an SMB?

Thanks to all who respond.
