Hi Phil -

Good question.  We integrate Sniffer into SmarterMail via Declude.
However, SmarterMail does have the capability to run a program against a
message before it is delivered.  We have some customers that use a batch
file to call f-prot and get virus scanning integrated into their mail
server on the cheap.  I believe it would likely be possible to make use
of the same functionality to call Sniffer directly, and thus avoid
having to purchase Declude.  I have just never had a need to attempt
this.

As for domain keys, I don't believe so.  However, you can setup
SPFyou're your domains simply by adding the appropriate DNS records to
said domains zone files.

Jay,

Thanks for the heads up on Mailenable. I took a look at SmarterMail 
and it looks pretty good. How does it interface with Message Sniffer 
or does it require and external gateway such as EWall? How has 
support been with it and how have they been as far as updates. Also 
does it have "domain keys" capability and SPF support for sending 
mail to yahoo.com etc...

Thanks,

Phil

2007-03-17 Thread Matt
There is in fact a Domain Keys plug-in for SmarterMail listed on their 
downloads page:


   http://www.smartertools.com/Products/SmarterMail/DL/v4.aspx

Personally I'm not a fan of any present sender identification 
implementation.  Both SPF and Domain Keys are primarily associated with 
spam by volume, and SPF can at cause one's customers issues when they do 
things like use alternative SMTP servers or find themselves behind an 
SMTP proxy at a hotel or T-Mobile HotSpot...but I digress.


I think that both IMail and SmarterMail are decent products, but neither 
one of them is perfect.  SmarterMail certainly has a lower cost of 
entry.  I would trust Jay's experience with MailEnable considering his 
extensive experience.

2007-03-17 Thread Jay Sudowski - Handy Networks LLC
Re: domain keys: I was looking at that in some older forum posts, and
from what I could tell it only did inbound authentication, not outbound
signing.  But apparently it does DK both ways now.  Sorry!  

 

I like SmarterMail, but as Matt says it's not perfect.  Their support is
definitely lacking, even though it's totally paid now, and they have a
very rapid development cycle (which is not a bad thing), but they really
like to stick it to folks who bought an old version just prior to the
release of a new version by making them pay full upgrade price.  Not
very customer friendly.  The CEO seems to be totally missing that point
and interacts with customers in public forums using a very arrogant
tone. OTOH, they allow service providers to hand out free 50 domain /
250 user licenses to any of their customers, in the hops that the
customer will need to upgrade to a larger edition.  This is good for the
service provider and very good for folks who fit into the "free" license
size.

 

And yes, ME really is a dog -  poor performance, poor code, poor overall
implementation

I really don't see why it wouldn't be possible to do.  Here is the script 
that's used for f-prot:

-
SET ERR=0
call "C:\Program Files\FSI\F-Prot\fpcmd.exe" -silent -auto -ai -archive 
-saferemove -disinf -del -append -report=C:\SmarterMail\logs\virusscan.log %1
IF NOT ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO CLEAN
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 SET ERR=1
IF ERRORLEVEL 2 SET ERR=2
IF ERRORLEVEL 3 SET ERR=3
IF ERRORLEVEL 4 SET ERR=4
IF ERRORLEVEL 5 SET ERR=5
IF ERRORLEVEL 6 SET ERR=6
@REM echo Virus scanned by F-Prot (%ERR%) viruses found>> %1
MOVE /Y %1 C:\SmarterMail\Viruses
GOTO END
:CLEAN
@REM echo Virus scanned by F-Prot (%ERR%) viruses found >> %1
:END
-

I think you should be able to modify it so that it calls Sniffer, rather than 
FProt.  %1 is the path to the mail file.  Based upon the error code/return 
code, you could then delete/hold spam detected by Sniffer accordingly. 

As for SM not having a GUI, it really hasn't be an issue for us...
