Enterprise Hosting Feature series: Spam-Exterminator
It has been a while since our last post, and for good reason! Apart from our normal support duties, the staff at MD have been flat out expanding our hosting compute cloud as well as working on a new range of enterprise hosting features. The first feature on the list is the Spam Exterminator and is available right now.
Everyone knows that spam causes headaches, wastes bandwidth, and can be used as a vehicle to drive credit card fraud or identity theft. The staff at MD have worked hard to find a hardware appliance solution that effectively stops up to 99.5% of spam from reaching your inbox.
As you can see from the comparison table below, Spam Exterminator is more effective than other solutions on the market such as IronPort, Postini and Barracuda.
What’s more, Spam Exterminator has a store-and-forward feature, so in the unlikely event that your email server is down, the hardware appliance will store any incoming mail and forward it to the main server when it is back online.
Finally, Spam Exterminator knows legitimate mail from spam. A lot of spam filter systems are very aggressive and block good mail and bad alike. Spam Exterminator has a very low false positive rate to protect against this occurring.
To keep the price of our hosting range low we have not included Spam Exterminator as a standard feature; instead, customers can purchase the service separately by heading to http://www.mdwebhosting.com.au/spam-removal.html
