oh come on, it takes all of 5 minutes.. 

I had our setup before anyone could ask me how long it was going to take.

You assign it an IP address
You enter the name of the mail server in it's advanced domain config you
change your MX record to point to the barracuda IP

done..

Ok then you realize no mail is flowing because you have to turn all the
filters off on the mail server at least for the barracuda's IP, and you
have to reject unknown user email at the server so the barracuda knows what
is valid and what isn't, then since you just turned the filters all off for
everywhere instead of just for the barracuda you find out the spammers
cache dns for 4 days and so tons of spam get thru since it's sent right to
the now unfiltered mail server instead of the barracuda...
