a word or phrase that you want MailMax to detect

IP addresses against open relay/spam databases
on the internet. This is used to greatly reduce
the amount of inbound spam.

known open relays. |

This
feature can be used as a means of tracking suspicious
activity on your server. The server can be set
up in such a way, so that if an IP address does
not reverse at all, then the server will not accept
delivery from the remote system.
Benefit: Lets you know who has
been on your server and allows you to deny access
to unidentifiable IP's. |
 |
Perform
DNS lookup on domains used in the Mail From: command.
If the domain does not exist then the server can
be configured to reject the email. If the domain
does exist and the connecting IP address does
not correlate with any of the IP addresses found
in the DNS lookup, the transaction will continue
but this information can be used when auditing
the logs to track suspicious activity.
Benefit: Simplified spam tracking
and blocking. |
 |
A new feature in MailMax 5.5, administrators can
scan for unsuccessful attempts of outside users
trying to send to non-existing users on your server.
You can configure MailMax to specify the number
of failed attempts before the offending IP address
is disconnected during that session.
Benefit: Stop spammers from harvesting
email addresses on your server. |
 |
Setup rules on a system, domain, or even user level. Users will be able to give their mailbox a dynamic behavior based upon how the rules affects their incoming mail. For example, you could specify a rule that all emails less than 10k in size received after 5:00 P.M. would be forwarded to your cell phone.
Benefit: Empower your users to
automate the handling of their mail at the server
level. |
 |

You also have the option of automatically added that offending email address to the bans list.
Benefit: Stop spammers from flooding your customers' mailboxes and automatically ban offending email addresses. |
