Benefits and Features:

System Requirements:

You will need your own mail domain, such as yourdomain.com; a static IP address or hostname that resolves to an IP address; and a dedicated mail server, either in-house or hosted by an ISP.

Activation starts with a simple mail exchanger (MX) record redirection. You can begin filtering using pre-established default settings, or you can easily fine-tune the settings to your specifications through our intuitive web-based administration console.
