MailStore Email Archiver
for MDaemon
Many Alt-N resellers provide additional archiving
functionality beyond MDaemon's simple archiving features. Alt-N's UK
distributor, Zen Software, has been offering customers MailStore as a
simple, scalable solution for overloaded mailboxes. MailStore installs
alongside the MDaemon server, archiving copies of all incoming and outbound
email to a highly scalable Firebird database, so it is no longer necessary
to keep a copy of every message on the server. Messages in existing PST
files and IMAP/POP accounts can also be quickly and easily imported.
An Outlook plug-in makes it simple for users of Outlook
Connector to have fast access to their archived email, while those using
WorldClient can access their email via the Web interface or iPhone Web
app.
Features include:
•
Archives all inbound and outbound email
• Fast,
text-based searching of archived mail and attachments
•
Archive access via Outlook plug-in, Web, GUI, or iPhone Web app
•
Message de-duplication and attachment encryption
• No
proprietary database licenses required
•
Integrated archive backup facility

downloading a
free 30-day trial. |

MDaemon Email Server includes a solid archive solution. For
more robust archiving solutions Alt-N Technologies recommends solutions from
several of our partners including MailStore, Marco, and
Archive Server for MDaemon. More information on these solutions or
MDaemon's built-in offerings is available on the
Email Archiving for MDaemon page. |

Maximize
SecurityGateway's Performance
The following recommendations will help you get the best
performance out of SecurityGateway.
• While
SecurityGateway requires at least 512 megs of RAM, we recommend 2 gigs or
more, especially
if
the server is going to see a lot of traffic. Also, a dual- or quad-core
processor is recommended.
•
Consider setting SecurityGateway to save message-logs and backups to a
different drive than the
one
which SecurityGateway is installed on. You may change the directories
SecurityGateway uses for
different
features under Setup / Users in the bottom-left corner, then Directories on
the left.
•
Likewise, setting up SecurityGateway on a separate drive from the operating
system will help
improve
performance.
• Use
caution when increasing the amount of information that SecurityGateway
records in its logs,
and
how long it retains information, as that can both increase the amount of
disk-space used, and
the
amount of CPU processing power needed to filter messages
|
|
Running SpamAssassin on a Separate Server from
SecurityGateway
The SpamAssassin (SpamD) processes can be run on a different
server than the server SecurityGateway is running on. This should be
considered if you would like to free up more resources on your server, if
you have a large number of messages to process, or if you have more than one
SecurityGateway server and want to use the same SpamAssassin settings,
rules, and Bayesian database for all.
For step-by-step instructions on running SpamAssassin on a
different server, please see the
knowledge base article on our website.
