It was this, or Google taking the risk of paying more after an IPO. There
has been talk of a Postini IPO the past few months and since Google already
was using Postini from a deal a few months ago, this perhaps was the next
logical step. Google is only offering the Enterprise Edition so this does
not effect those already offering Postini through an ISP, Webhost, VAR or
MSP.
In fact I anticipate an increase awareness of Postini and for our resellers
as well. We offer both the Service Provider and Enterprise Editions' and
also pair them either with our hosted email or ala carte.
