Review: Blackspider MailControl

Review: Blackspider MailControl

Blackspider's MailControl service won a Best Buy in SC Magazine last year for its strong service offering, and although FrontBridge beat it to the line this time around, MailControl is still a very good service indeed.

Review: Corpex Armourplate

Review: Corpex Armourplate

Armourplate is a managed service with offices in the U.K. and Germany. Although the website claims to be "for U.K. business", the company says it is open to customers anywhere in the world. With the contact details and office hours limited to U.K. specifics, we feel the company (or its parent, Corpex) could be doing a lot more to draw attention to this.

Review: EPA

EPA (Email Protection Agency) is a reseller for the Email Systems mail filtering services. As managed services settle down, we expect to see a lot more of the larger services being offered as rebadged services through other channels and service providers.

Review: Frontbridge

Review: Frontbridge

This service has been clearly aimed at large (or complicated) organizations that might be managing multiple domains. It can do clever tricks such as rewriting email addresses and handling subdomains that may not have been specifically configured. Administrators can be created with limited sets of responsibilities.

Review: INSL SpheriQ

INSL's SpheriQ service started off well in our tests. A detailed setup process was well managed and we liked the inclusion of a relay test conducted against our mail servers.

Review: intY MailDefender

Review: intY MailDefender

IntY's MailDefender manages to squeeze quite a lot of mail filters and controls into an attractive and uncomplicated interface. We might have preferred the default first screen to be the useful quarantine summary (giving customer-wide mail totals), rather than the actual quarantining itself, but this was just a minor quibble.

Review: NetIntelligence MailFilter

MailFilter is a service with lots of good ideas, but it needs some final polish to really shine.

Keeping email legal – the issues of email monitoring

Thanks to its speed, accessibility and ease of use, email is an essential part of both our business and personal lives. But as the IT departments charged with managing a company’s email deal with increasing volumes of traffic, spam levels and virus-infected mail, they also encounter a minefield of legal traps and regulatory pitfalls when they monitor employees’ emails.
