| White says the secret to reaching that goal has been open source
| software. "We compete in a mature market against
| venture-capital-funded companies many times our size," White says.
| "We also compete against free solutions like MIMEDefang and

| open source tools have let us keep our costs down, so we never
| needed to go out and raise tens of millions of dollars in order
| to become players."
