What is the difference between MPP Free Edition and MPP Core?

TONS! There is virtually no resembelance between our free and commercial product.

How do I install MPP Free Edition?

In most cases, download the files, unpack them, run the installer - RPM, tar.gz or MacOS X installer,
- and then run our configure script, /usr/local/MPP/configure.pl. You can always read our mailserver installation guide
which gives complete instructions if our configure scripts fail to properly configure the email server -

Is there an upgrade path for MPP Community Edition?

Yes, please contact us for detail

How is MPP Community licensed?

MPP Free edition is Freeware. It is copyright protected commercial software that is free. We thought about making it GPL but the downsides of this license are greater than the upside. First of all, the software is written in C++ and is quite complicated so the pool of qualified and interested contributors would be fairly small. The costs involved in documenting and organizing the software for outsiders to make sense of the code are quite high and we do not have the financial backing that many of the major GPL projects have now a days. So we decided to release the software as free, in the spirit of GPL, but without the high costs on our side.

What is the best method to interface with ClamAV with MPP Free Edition?

ClamD. We have two Clam scanners - clamav and clamd. Clamav uses the clamav libraries, but for some reason this violates the GPL license and we no longer keep these libraries up to date. The libclamav interface is the best interface to Clam, but we have better things to do than fight with a large GPL organization, so we stopped keeping libclamav up to date. We recommend to use the slower ClamD scanner instead of our clamav scanner. If you use our clamav scanner you will miss viruses because the libclamav we statically link is out of date. It is worth mentioning that if you do not keep ClamD up to date you will also miss viruses, so keep clamd up to date with Freshclam.

MPP Community simply provides a faster and easier way to use ClamAV and SpamAssassin than MailScanner or AmavisD. MPP Community features an intuitive GUI interface (which has been significantly improved with MPPv3), and also includes email signatures, adjustable max file size limits, extension blocking, and more.

MPP Community does not include the full arsenal of tools available to defeat spam and viruses, and also does not include other important email tools such as email archival, content screening, attachment stripping, along with other applications deemed essential to a complete email system.

The fact is, with email now vital to business communication, and with attacks on email growing by the day, the days of companies trying to get by using free open source email tools is quickly becoming a thing of the past. And what a company saves on open source in the front-end they will quickly spend many times over in terms of IT labor costs on the back-end.

Here’s how you will gain by upgrading to MPPv3:

  • A policy engine that offers total control over all email options based on domain, direction, or groups of users.
  • An immediate 20% improvement in spam detection and a 70% reduction in server load when switching from SpamAssassin (a true resource hog) to Cloudmark (voted ‘Best
    of the Year’ by PC Magazine) and other antispam modules.
  • The ability to fine-tune your antispam defenses with per-user spam actions, per-user spam white and black
    lists, as well as the most advanced Postfix pre and post-queue antispam tool available anywhere — which enables you to stay on top of the truly frightening rise in spam.
  • Essential administrative quarantine management.
  • An attachment management solution that controls attachment flow and can strip attachments, replace them with a link, then
    store the attachment on a centralized server (saving substantial space).
  • The capability for the end user to manage their own spam and archival settings, saving the valuable time and considerable hassle of the system administrator.
