PHOENIX (BusinessWire EON) April 18, 2007 --
SmarterMail
is the perfect solution for those needing an SMTP
mail server to reside on computers using the new Microsoft Vista™
Operating System
(OS). A basic SMTP mail server solution has been included in every
version of the Windows OS for many years. In addressing potential
vulnerabilities and other concerns going forward, however, Microsoft
chose to leave the SMTP functionality out of their latest offering—the
new Vista™
OS.
Leaving the SMTP mail server out of Vista™
may not be a bad thing for everyone. Most Vista™
users will not miss it because they use a third-party solution to
provide for all of their mail communications needs. But many Developers,
System Administrators, and other IT professionals have relied on the
SMTP solution inside their workstations to process mailing lists, handle
basic mail functions, and for development testing purposes. Upgrading to
Vista™ now means that a third-party solution
will be required to accomplish those goals. SmarterMail fits that bill
perfectly.
SmarterMail, developed by SmarterTools,
is well known as a rock-solid mail server solution for ISPs, Web-hosting
companies, and small businesses. It has been developed using .NET 2.0—the
same framework used by Vista™—so
it is reliable and integrates well with the new OS. SmarterTools remains
committed to having Free versions of its product line available for use
by individuals and technical professionals—SmarterMail
is no exception.
All versions of SmarterMail 4 include fully integrated SpamAssassin
and ClamAV right out of the box.
These industry-leading enhancements build upon previously introduced
SmarterMail features, such as Bayesian
filtering, SPF,
RBL, SMTP connection
blocking, intrusion detection, and more, to ensure that spam and viruses
are stopped at the perimeter—95% (or more) of
spam never touches an inbox. The complete set of spam, virus, and
attack-prevention features is integrated into every installation of
SmarterMail 4.0—including the Free version.
SmarterMail 4.0 has a new, user-friendly AJAX
Web interface and custom skins that can be used to make SmarterMail the
perfect fit for each organization. SmarterMail 4 also expands upon the
tools that business customers demand, including collaboration,
calendars, contacts, tasks, folders, notes, and enterprise-level
features such as synchronization with Microsoft
Outlook™ and Pocket
PC.
