Do you have an Email Filtering Solution?

Tired of spam and viruses getting into your inbox?

How much time do you waste every day deleting SPAM and junk mail from your inbox? How many times have you opened an email to find out that it was an email based virus? Ever wondered if that email that just didn't seem right was a phishing attempt or not?

There is now an easy to use and cost effective solution that also provides a rolling thirty day backup of your email.

Introduce to you a service we provide (I know shameless plug for our services) called MailWise.

The way it works is simple... We make a change to the behind the scenes way your email comes to you. What happens next is all your email goes to the MailWise servers first where it is checked for spam, viruses, phishing attempts, and compared to pass/block lists that you create.
After going through MailWise's secure, redundant servers, only the clean, allowed, wanted email is sent to your server/inbox.

Your probably wondering to yourself what happens to the blocked email.... Well it sits on their servers. At an interval that you set, you receive to your inbox a blocking report that looks like the picture below.







As you can see this blocking report allows you to release the blocked mail directly from your inbox.

By doing it this way, you end up saving space on your email server, since only legitimate email is getting sent to it, you save time, as you are no longer wasting it sifting through the junk mail, and sometimes you save money if you are using a hosted solution where you are not needing to spend as much money on space.

The other huge benefit to MailWise is the rolling thirty day backup of your email. While it is filtering your email, MailWise holds all the inbound (and outbound if you are setup for that) email. If for whatever reason your server, internet connection, power, etc goes down, MailWise is still collecting your mail. At that point all you do is go to a place that has an internet connection and go to their Emergency Portal and log in. This portal allows you to Read, Reply, Forward, and Compose new email messages. By using the Emergency Portal you are able to appear to the outside world that everything is functioning 100%. Once the issue preventing your email server from functioning normally is resolved, 15 to 20 minutes after we place a phone call or send an email to the MailWise staff, all your missed email is right back onto your email server as though nothing ever happened.

At this point it is back to business as usual. If anyone has any questions or is interested in a demonstration or thirty day free trial of MailWise give us a call or send us an email.
