Shared Resources

Sharing resources across a company, department, or among a group of users is simple with SmarterMail. Users can create, manage, and share collaboration items via webmail, third-party clients, or Web-capable mobile devices.

Unified Email and Collaboration Server

SmarterMail is a powerful email collaboration server designed to help businesses connect with customers, employees, and partners. Increase productivity, and drive new revenue with enterprise-class collaboration features that most people associate with more expensive mail servers such as Microsoft Exchange, including email, contacts, calendars, tasks, and notes.

Cross-platform Collaboration

Some of the collaboration server features of SmarterMail include support for a wide range of desktop clients and mobile devices, including Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, Google Android, and iPhone. These allow users to communicate efficiently regardless of their preferred platform. In addition, SmarterMail's powerful Web interface gives users mailbox access from anywhere there is an Internet connection.

Two--way Synchronization with Outlook

Access your email, calendars, contacts, tasks, and notes in the office, on the road, or at home with SmarterMail's leading webmail interface. The mail server's Web-based interface combines aesthetics with the full functionality of a desktop client, giving users the ability to communicate and collaborate around the clock from anywhere there is an Internet connection.

Mailing Lists for Large Email Distributions

Businesses can use SmarterMail's mailing list feature to send mass email to customers regarding special promotions, product updates, or company news. Create custom templates, manage opt-in email lists, and distribute email communications to large groups of people quickly and easily. Automatic detection and removal of bounced emails ensures greater efficiency in mailing list maintenance.

Exchange ActiveSync Mail Server

Although SmarterMail includes synchronization capabilities out-of-the-box, the Exchange ActiveSync add-on is the only synchronization method that uses direct push technology to automatically provide users with over-the-air access to all of their email, calendars, tasks, and notes. Syncing SmarterMail with most smartphones is quick, easy, and automatic with Exchange ActiveSync. Plus, the always-up-to-date feature of Exchange ActiveSync ensures any changes to collaboration items are automatically recorded in both SmarterMail and the mobile device in real time.

Sync to Mobile Devices

It's easy to communicate with employees, co-workers, customers, and partners from most smartphones, including Android, BlackBerry, iPhone, and Windows Mobile devices. SmarterMail supports out-of-the-box synchronization of email and collaboration data via Exchange ActiveSync and SyncML, giving users over-the-air access to their communications on hundreds of compatible devices.

SpamAssassin-based Pattern Matching Engine

SmarterMail incorporates the SpamAssassin- based Pattern Matching Engine as part of its multi-layered spam protection strategy. Based on SpamAssassin technology, this powerful pattern matching engine can process substantially higher volumes of email per day without the cost of addtional hardware.

Third-party Spam Filtering

SmarterMail also integrates with most leading third-party antispam solutions, including Barracuda Spam Firewall, Declude, and Trend Micro.

Powerful Antispam Server

Effective out-of-the-box 97% spam protection is achieved with SmarterMail's structured, multi-layer spam prevention strategy. The antispam server technologies allow for customized levels of protection and flexible configurations using a variety of methods, including greylisting, SPF, DomainKeys/DKIM, Bayesian filtering, reverse DNS, RBL, blacklist/whitelist, SMTP blocking, custom headers, and per-user spam weighting. Together, these spam blocking technologies achieve 97% protection with exceptionally low false-positives.

Boost Spam Protection to 99.5%

Extend the antispam server measures with the Commtouch Premium Antispam add-on. When combined with SmarterMail's out-of-the-box spam protection, the Commtouch Premium Antispam add-on effectively blocks 99.5% of spam from users' inboxes, regardless of the location, format, or language of the message. Rather than evaluating the content of messages, the

Commtouch Premium Antispam add-on uses Recurrent Pattern Detection (RPD) technology to analyze large volumes of Internet traffic in real time, recognizing and protecting against new spam threats the moment they emerge.

	Greylisting
	Whitelisting IPs (for Greylisting)
	Create custom spam weights
	Outbound spam checking and blocking
	SMTP connection level blocking for certain spam checks
	Advanced domain and user content filtering

Built-in Antivirus Software

SmarterMail is equipped with effective and self-updating virus protection measures out-of-the-box. With ClamAV antivirus, detailed antivirus activity reports are available at the system, domain, and user levels. In addition, the ClamAV signature database is updated multiple times a day and contains more than 300,000 signatures, including generic signatures that are able to detect new variants at a high rate.

Email Server Antivirus

SmarterMail includes several antivirus enhancements that prevent the email server from being compromised, including support for incoming and outgoing SSL/TLS connections, administrator access restriction by IP, intrusion detection, active directory authentication, harvest attack detection, denial of service attack prevention, malicious script authentication, and brute force detection for webmail.

Commtouch Antivirus for Increased Security

Companies can further extend their email server antivirus measures with the Commtouch Zero-hour Antivirus add-on. Rather than depending on heuristics, Commtouch Zero-hour Antivirus uses Recurrent Pattern Detection (RPD) technology to scan the Internet and identify malware outbreaks as soon as they emerge, providing proactive virus blocking that is effective, immediate,

and signature-independent. With the Commtouch Zero-hour Antivirus add-on as a complement to traditional antivirus technology, administrators can feel secure knowing that their mail servers are protected from outbreaks the moment they occur.

Automate System Actions

SmarterMail can be configured to perform automated tasks based upon specific parameters. For example, system administrators can use the mail server software’s event-driven architecture to automate a variety of system tasks, such as adding an IP block into the router when an intrusion is detected, disabling a domain or user based upon throttling thresholds, or notifying administrators when a service is not responding.

Mail Server Performance Reports

With dozens of pre-defined reports, SmarterMail provides critical statistics that help system and domain administrators monitor their systems. The ability to drill down into new data levels for every domain or user on the system helps administrators identify trends, manage costs, and effectively allocate resources.

Web Services

SmarterMail was designed to support easy administration and automation. Through the use of Web services, companies can integrate SmarterMail with external applications such as control panels to reduce costs and automate tasks, including creating mailboxes and domains, creating and modifying settings for mailboxes, domains, or entire servers, and determining domain-specific bandwidth usage for billing.

Web-based Administration

SmarterMail's Web-based administration interface provides system administrators remote access to the mail server from anywhere there is an Internet connection. Administrators can quickly and securely manage configuration and mail server maintenance tasks, while day-to-day tasks can easily be automated through exposed Web services.

Real-time Dashboards

SmarterMail includes detailed, real-time performance dashboards that supply system administrators with important, on-demand statistics about their servers, domains, and mailboxes, including inbound connections, server load, and total messages delivered.

Throttling

Throttling allows the number of messages, amount of bandwidth, and/or the number of bounced messages to be limited for domains, users, or mailing lists over a given amount of time. Throttling is an effective method for managing large mailing list distributions to avoid interruptions or delays in normal email flow. When used in conjunction with SmarterMail's event-driven architecture, actions can be automated to prevent abuse in real-time.

Priority Spooling

Email delivery can be more effectively managed by setting priorities based upon domains or email types. Process-intensive email traffic can be assigned a lower priority, allowing regular emails to process first and avoiding unnecessary delays. Emailed notifications can be assigned higher priority to ensure that important information is delivered quickly.
