Collaboration for the Office and the Enterprise
SmarterMail 5.x provides the robust collaboration features that most people associate only with more expensive mail servers such as Microsoft Exchange. SmarterMail provides each user with the ability to share contacts, email folders, calendars, tasks, and notes between co-workers and across enterprise organizations. Global Address List (GAL) functionality allows Enterprise edition users to accurately coordinate across large project teams.

Powerful Web Interface – Collaborate Anywhere
SmarterMail 5.x delivers all of the coordination and communication functionality that you expect from your office desktop—to any pc with an internet connection—anywhere in the world through a familiar and intuitive Web interface. Users have access to shared calendars and the availability of their co-workers to schedule appointments. Tasks can be assigned and emails managed 24/7 with accuracy, speed, and security.

Improved Synchronization
SmarterMail Sync—available for the Enterprise edition at no additional charge—provides users with the ability to fully utilize Microsoft Outlook beyond the capabilities of most mail servers. Enterprise edition users also receive the ability to synchronize with Pocket PCs and Smartphone devices (such as the Motorola Q™, Palm Treo™, and Samsung BlackJack™).

Event-driven Notifications and Actions
SmarterMail 5.x is one of the first Mail Servers designed to be Event-driven. There are now a virtually infinite number of Event/Action combinations that can be created and used to provide notifications and—more importantly—cause specific pre-defined actions to be implemented. There is almost no end to the number of ways that Events can be used.

SmarterMail Brings the Message to You
Individual users can be informed via SMS text message or email to any address when a specific email arrives in their mailbox, an appointment reminder has occurred, their mailbox is getting full, and much more—all combined into dozens of possible combinations.

Experience the Future of Mail Server Administration
Administrators have all of the Event capability of the user-level and gain system warnings, server notices, intrusion detection, and a host of other possibilities. Further, in addition to notifications, administrators have the ability to perform actions upon those Events.

• Did a domain reach a Throttling threshold?
• Did the mail server detect an intrusion?
• Did a user exceed a pre-set mail size limit?
• Did the administrator stop SMTP? 

Take Action Now
Events and Notifications are one thing, taking immediate action is another. SmarterMail 5.x can be configured to perform automated tasks based upon the parameters that you set for your domain or system.

• Size Limits can be enforced
• Intruders can be blocked
• Warnings can be sent
• Command-line executables can be launched
• Much more….

There is no limit to the types of Events, Notifications, and Actions you can preset and use to maximize the effectiveness of your systems and administrative team.

  Two detailed, real-time dashboards supply important statistic on-the-fly, including:

System-Wide Archiving
SmarterMail has the ability for system-wide email archiving. System Administrators can designate an archive folder which will contain copies of every inbound and outbound email sent each day. At the end of each day SmarterMail will take that folder and compress it for archival storage. This is a great feature for companies which need to keep records of inbound and outbound communication for compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley and other regulatory agencies.

Detect, Prevent, and Limit 
The new SmarterMail 5.x interface adds a new Security Section to support the existing security features and includes even more protections. With the introduction of these new features, the security scheme will often be referred to as the "DETECT, PREVENT, and LIMIT" foundation.

Capable Antivirus
SmarterMail comes pre-loaded with ClamAV antivirus installed and ready to go, right-out-of-the-box. ClamAV is a premier, open-source project offering superior protection that resides on the primary mail server, or—in high volume environments—on a remote server helping to reduce the burden of the SmarterMail sever. Also for high volume environments, SmarterMail supports third-party real-time and command-line antivirus.

Automatic Attack Prevention
SmarterMail boasts intrusion detection, harvest attack and denial of service attack prevention, SMTP authentication, malicious script filtering, and more.

Additional Protection
Other security features available within SmarterMail are:

• Supports SSL/TLS connections
