Email Continuity
Imagine your server goes offline for an extended time, due to a power cut at your office for instance, can you still communicate with your customers?
GFI MAX MailProtection is both a hosted email security solution AND an email continuity solution in one, providing spam and virus filtering and access to your email even if your server is offline.
GFI MAX Mail Protection provides a true email continuity service which acts as an ‘always available’ email backup solution. If your server is unavailable, your email will be queued and accessible to read and reply to from the online control panel. You can continue to contact your customers from any other location with internet access immediately and without any further emergency configuration.
When your server is back online again, the messages are then sent on and you can work as normal.
Virus and Spam Filtering
GFI MAX MailProtection’s cutting edge technology ensures the optimal filtering of unwanted spam email or harmful messages infected with viruses. At the same time, its customisable management interface and innovative features such as one-click whitelisting, ensure that it is hassle-free.
GFI Max MailProtection uses its own servers to strip out the unwanted and harmful email and then only sends legitimate and safe email to your server. This reduces the load on your systems, the bandwidth on your internet connection and avoids harmful email ever touching your server.
Incoming email is redirected to GFI’s fully redundant network and application architecture, which processes messages in real-time via both traditional spam filtering techniques and leading-edge approaches to message analysis including authenticity checks, message fingerprinting, heuristic rule sets, extensive URI databases, real-time message source analysis, and customizable whitelists and blacklists.
- Zero-Hour Virus Protection
Blocks new or emerging “zero hour” virus threats before those threats can be detected by traditional signature-based AV solutions. - Daily Spam Digest Email
A spam digest email alerts you to any potential false-positives. As a daily reminder, you can check your email quarantine before deletion on a regular basis, rather than leaving it to become a time-wasting chore. The digest messages can be scheduled as infrequently as once per week or as frequently as three times per day. - Simple Monthly Charging
GFI MAX MailProtection has a simple, per-user-per-month pricing structure, with no capital expenditure or start-up costs, other than a small charge for the configuration. - 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.
