GFIMAX Mail Edge

Hosted Front-line Defence for Your Email Security System

Email is a critical communications tool. In an environment of continually rising volumes of spam and email threats, companies are facing the need to economically defend their infrastructure while also protecting against any email downtime. Using a hybrid solution that combines an existing on-premise anti-spam/antivirus system with an online solution enables customers to leverage their existing investment, while ensuring stronger defence against threats and providing an on-demand, always available backup mail service.

As a hosted front-line defence solution for your email security system, GFI MAX MailEdge offers an additional layer of email threat protection and email continuity functionality. Designed to be used in combination with GFI MailEssentials, GFI MailSecurity or other existing on-premise anti-spam/antivirus tools, GFI MAX MailEdge is able to block the most obvious spam before it reaches a customer’s network, drastically reducing the bandwidth and processing power required for handling the increasing volumes of incoming email, and effectively increasing the capacity of the on-premise tool.

Equally importantly, GFI MAX MailEdge provides email continuity: the service will automatically queue any legitimate inbound email messages that cannot be delivered, and allows customers to access and respond to those messages when the customer’s email server is off-line.
