Mail Protection

• Zero-hour virus protection

Block new or emerging “zero hour” virus threats before those threats can be detected by traditional signature-based AV solutions.

• Continuity

You can continue accessing, responding to, and sending email messages, even in the event of an on-premise mail server or network outage; mail is queued by the service, and you can continue accessing or responding to those messages via the Acarte™ MailProtection control panel, even while your own mail server is off-line.

• Inbound spam filtering

Improve productivity of servers and employees by reducing the volume of junk mail getting through an existing anti-spam solution.

• Individual junk mail digests

Users can view a convenient, automatically emailed summary of detected spam messages, with a link next to each message to allow the user to identify and release from the quarantine any potential false positives.

• Network defense

Almost all spam and email threats can be blocked before they reach your network – reducing risk, freeing up network bandwidth and easing mail server load.

• Denial of service attack (DoS) prevention

Prevent email-based DoS attacks by limiting and controlling inbound SMTP traffic from one or more given source IP addresses.

• Hosted individual junk mail quarantines

The service can retain detected spam messages in the control panel outside of the company’s network, while allowing each user to access these messages at any time to check for any genuine mail that may have been caught by the spam filters.

• Configurable user preferences

Administrators can set the spam filtering configuration for a given user, or can delegate the ability to do so to the individual users so that the service works for their specific needs.

• Outbound spam filtering

Prevent inappropriate messages or attachments from being sent from your network or from a specific user, thereby protecting your company’s reputation and alerting administrators as to the presence of any infected workstations or ‘zombie’ machines, so that those systems can be handled appropriately.

• Directory harvest attack prevention

Defend against spammers who attempt to deliver messages to a large number of valid and invalid email addresses at your domain.

• Message logging and search

Determine the delivery status of an inbound or outbound message, via a message search tool that includes full delivery logs for all messages in the last 10 days.

• Platform-neutral

Works with any operating system or mail infrastructure including Exchange, Lotus Domino, GroupWise, Zimbra, qmail, postfix, sendmail and any other SMTP server.
