[IMail Forum] Imail v9 = Collaboration Suite
Following to the german news on http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/52288 the next Imail version will be released as Collaboration Suite on october 25. So far so good. But what's about: The smallest Collaboration Suite license (25 Users, and Bitdefender AV Engine) will cost 1295 Euro + VAT Up to now Imail v8 SB has a basic cost of around the half of this price. Anyone has more information about this?

Spamskip.txt is created via the Trusted Addresses tab in V8.1x, so, yes, this appears to be the only way to specify from the GUI and how the file is written, when entering a single address. BTW, the separator between the IP and Mask appears to be a tab, not a space, if you are editing the file. Be sure there is a CRLF after each IP/Mask line.

I expect you to receive a bill for the hour (.667 rounded up). Our last transaction with our old IP Lawyer was a .5 hour charge for receiving a voice mail! Anyhow, it looks to this layman as if your archives may be subpoenaed only if they exist. So, I changed to killing all logs at 1 week age, and archive nothing. If a user leaves it in a mailbox, well then it's on a backup tape too.

RE: [IMail Forum] OT: Sarbanes-Oxley
How much actually deals with client info (data that would need to be archived). We have an account which we email project related emails. We place a flag (###) where ### is some client number in the Subject line and an incomming and outgoing filter automagically copies the email to this account. Since we use Outlook as our email client, a dedicated machine collects the emails and rules file them into folders. Once a month we archive from this machine. Works for us but we probably don't have your volume. .rick.. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rick Davidson Sent: Tuesday, October 19, 2004 2:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] OT: Sarbanes-Oxley The incoming volume of mail is too high to just channel it to a mailbox and we have 7 Imail systems that will need to copy mail to an archive server.

RE: [IMail Forum] upgrading system box
I have Imail installed on a Dell server with Win2000SRV for Primary. Same hardware but WinXP Pro (not my idea) for the backup server. The main server, on the same hardware, is almost twice as fast at Declude/Fprot/Imail. Neither box runs anything else continually (the backup has a program that the boss uses that won't work on a server OS, but he only uses it once a month for about an hour). I don't have hard numbers to support it, but the difference is very obvious.

Re[2]: [IMail Forum] OT: Sarbanes-Oxley
Anyhow, it looks to this layman as if your archives may be subpoenaed only if they exist. So, I changed to killing all logs at 1 week age, and archive nothing. SOX 802 specifically provides for prison time for deletion of data in contemplation of matters that _are not yet under_ investigation and matters _that may not yet have begun_ at the time a deletion policy took effect. If you are subject to SOX, an attempt to subvert future subpoenas by destroying all data could well land you in jail. As for statutes outside of SOX and NASD/SEC, the treatment may be far more lenient, but the question here was about SOX. --Sandy Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release/ Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/download/release/ http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/release/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/

I am trying to clear up a debate about whether or not we are required to archive our incoming and outgoing email. We are owned by a public company and we do deal with financial transactions and peoples personal information. I cannot find a definitive answer on whether or not we have to archive email. It is a certainty that if you are a wholly-owned subsidiary of a SOX-bound company, you too must comply with SOX regulations and archive all incoming and outgoing mail (as well as numerous other data-related compliance measures). If your parent company is subject to SOX, so are you.

[IMail Forum] Bogus Helo Issues
Dear List, My server is having problems delivering email to just one specific mail server. I can see that this server (64.202.166.12) had blakclisted my server, perhaps because it does not pass some helo checks. I have reviewed my configurations, and they look Ok: relay only for my local addresses, PTR records, etc. Is there something that I am overlooking, or perhaps It's just some misconfigurations in that server's anti-spam system? Any suggestions?

SOX 802 specifically provides for prison time for deletion of data in contemplation of matters that _are not yet under_ investigation and matters _that may not yet have begun_ at the time a deletion policy took effect. If you are subject to SOX, an attempt to subvert future subpoenas by destroying all data could well land you in jail.

Even better, the PTR never matches the A record nor the HELO. Actually: 10.4.18.64.in-addr.arpa name = webjogger.net.mail1.psmtp.com (That's for the MXs. The first hostname does match up, but the use of an outsourced MX provider is not related to the sending issues, in any case.)

Hey John, If you are speaking of using a desktop operating system for your IMail box, I HIGHLY recommend against it. If you are using a desktop OS now, that is probably why your performance might be degrading. You could actually take your existing box, upgrade the RAM (and hard drive if needed), upgrade the OS to a server OS (2000 or 2003) and see a significant improvement in performance.
