I think that's a matter of opinion. I personally believe email filtering 
should not be a part of a mail server but understand how in some 
circumstances it makes sense (buying an all-in-one server solution or an 
appliance).

The first thing we did when installing Kolab3 was to disable both tools, 
since email filtering is handled by other infrastructure with the sole 
purpose of high quality email filtering.
