  • Is the mxguarddog's "industry standard spam and virus filtering" any better that filtering offered by major email providers?
  • White/blacklisting with mxguarddog seems to be unnecessarily complicated (that's my reading of their FAQ).
  • And on top of mxguarddog's filters you'll have the email provider's set of filters which may be more restrictive. So some of the false positives may end up in two different places: spam folder and mxguarddog's quarantine
.

All in all this seems to me an unnecessary complication....
