  • AXIGEN Mail Server™ Has Been Designed to Enable Businesses to Cut Costs Without Cutting Corners
    Combating the increasing cost of email Why you should read this white paper Businesses usually adopt a commonsense approach when it comes to spending the IT budget with cost being a major influencer in purchasing decisions. However, when it comes to choosing a mail server, many businesses seem to pay less attention to the costs and, as a result, end up spending far more money than is necessary. This white paper will explain how businesses can significantly reduce the costs of their email communication while continuing to provide users with a best-in-class messaging and collaboration solution. White paper Introduction Today, email is absolutely mission-critical. Communication and collaboration keep your business running. Email and electronically enabled collaboration have become so embedded in normal day-to-day operations that many businesses simply could not function without them. These services enable everything from productivity enhancing collaboration between employees to external communications with customers and business partners and demand 24x7 availability. Many businesses, however, have found that the cost of providing employees with the latest in messaging and collaboration technology is rapidly escalating. To meet modern business needs, mail servers have had to become more complex – and with that additional complexity come additional management burdens and costs. Furthermore, some mail servers have an upgrade process that is both extremely complex and extremely costly and which may necessitate the purchase of replacement server hardware. Combined, these factors place a considerable drain on corporate resources. The problem is especially severe for small and medium sized businesses (SMBs) which usually do not have access to the same financial or technical resources as large enterprises.

  • Efficient Spam Filtering System Based on Smart Cooperative Subjective and Objective Methods*
    Int. J. Communications, Network and System Sciences, 2013, 6, 88-99 http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/ijcns.2013.62011 Published Online February 2013 (http://www.scirp.org/journal/ijcns) Efficient Spam Filtering System Based on Smart * Cooperative Subjective and Objective Methods Samir A. Elsagheer Mohamed1,2 1College of Computer, Qassim University, Qassim, KSA 2Electrical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Aswan University, Aswan, Egypt Email: [email protected], [email protected] Received September 17, 2012; revised January 16, 2013; accepted January 25, 2013 ABSTRACT Most of the spam filtering techniques are based on objective methods such as the content filtering and DNS/reverse DNS checks. Recently, some cooperative subjective spam filtering techniques are proposed. Objective methods suffer from the false positive and false negative classification. Objective methods based on the content filtering are time con- suming and resource demanding. They are inaccurate and require continuous update to cope with newly invented spammer’s tricks. On the other side, the existing subjective proposals have some drawbacks like the attacks from mali- cious users that make them unreliable and the privacy. In this paper, we propose an efficient spam filtering system that is based on a smart cooperative subjective technique for content filtering in addition to the fastest and the most reliable non-content-based objective methods. The system combines several applications. The first is a web-based system that we have developed based on the proposed technique. A server application having extra features suitable for the enter- prises and closed work groups is a second part of the system. Another part is a set of standard web services that allow any existing email server or email client to interact with the system.

  • I. Instaling and Configuring the AXIGEN MAIL SERVER
    15 Minutes to Setup AXIGEN with AV and AS FAST.RELIABLE.SECURE.MESSAGING This article illustrates a situation where you need to set up your own mail server (be it your home mail server, or a small office one). It actually shows that, if using an integrated service mail server, anyone can do the job, all in a matter of minutes. AXIGEN Mail Server, the solution chosen for this example, can send and receive e- mails securely via "mydomain.com" and is able to retrieve them in a WebMail interface - this means that it includes all mail services needed for a fully functional mail server (SMTP, IMAP, POP3, WebMail, WebAdmin). To get an idea of the amount of time you can spare by installing such a solution, just think of all the different open source applications you would need to install instead (i.e. an MTA, Squirrelmail for Webmail, QmailAdmin for web configuration, Courier for IMAP and POP3 and many others.) AXIGEN Mail Server can virtually integrate with any Antivirus/Antispam application and it comes with built-in connectors ClamAV Antivirus and SpamAssassin. The second part of this article shows you how to install these applications and configure these connectors for use with AXIGEN. Thus, at the end of this process which can take up half an hour at most, you will not only have your mail server up and running, but also virus and spam protection for your incoming and outgoing mail traffic. AXIGEN runs on several Linux distributions (Gentoo, Redhat/Fedora Core, Slackware, Debian, Ubuntu, Mandrake/Mandriva, SUSE), on BSD versions (FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD) and on Solaris but for the purpose of this article, let's suppose you are setting up your mail system on a Fedora Core 6 platform.

  • SMTP Reply Codes Reference & List
    AnswersThatWorkTM SMTP Status codes – SMTP Error Codes – SMTP Reply Codes SMTP Status Codes & SMTP Error Codes Reference There comes a time in the life of a Computer Consultant where, one day, he/she will have to deal with email server problems. It is inevitable. Sometimes these problems will be with the interfacing of the mail server with the ISP, in particular an inability to send mail. After checking the usual suspects such as lack of connection (your broadband line is dead), faulty router, firewall problems, DNS problems, or an incorrect SMTP server name (thanks to some clever ISP changing its SMTP server name without informing anyone – it happens!!), you will likely start delving a little deeper by checking if your email server reports any errors. Depending on the actual problem it is encountering, your mail server may not be able to provide detailed help on how to resolve the problem, and may instead only be able to provide you with an SMTP Status Code in your server’s log (these codes are also known as SMTP Error Codes or SMTP Reply Codes). It is just for such cases that we have produced this document (we use it too !! J ). So, use this document as a quick reference to common SMTP status codes or SMTP error codes for SMTP mail servers such as AA Mail Server, Alt-N MDaemon, ArGoSoft Mail Server, Axigen Mail Server, Barracuda Spam Firewall, CMail, CMailServer, E-Mail Anywhere, FTGate, GMS Mail, Internet Anywhere, Kerio MailServer (KMS), Lotus Notes, MailEnable, MailMax, Mailtraq, Merak Mail Server, Microsoft Exchange (Exchange Server 2003 NDR, Non-Delivery Report, error codes), Novell GroupWise, Qmail, PostCast Server, PostConf, PostFix, PowerMTA, QK SMTP Server, Rockliffe MailSite, SendMail, SurgeMail, TFS Secure Message Server, VisNetic Mail Server, WinMail, Zimbra, or any other SMTP / ESMTP standards compliant e-mail MTA.
