MPP and Open Source

February 5, 2008

The open source community provides many great component technologies like email servers, databases, directories, spam scanners, virus scanners and more. MPP takes all these different components and integrates them into a comprehensive email security and compliance solution.

MPP is easier to use, faster, and better supported than open source integration tools like AmavisD, MailScanner, Exiscan or QmailScanner. MPP will dramatically increase system performence, save valuable admin time, and our policy engine will allow you to realize the full potential of email.

One of the key issues with open source security is their total reliance on the effectiveness of SpamAssassin and ClamAV. Today’s email attacks often use the most unexpected tactics, and often require the most innovative methods to stop them, which is why we created MPP to be entirely scanner independent.

With MPP you can layer scanners, you can incorporate both commercial and open source technologies, and essentially allows you to use whichever tool works best to keep email up and running. And since MPP allows you to apply scanners, along with our many other configurations, on a per-group or per-policy basis, you can selectively customize performence for just a few domains or for the entire server.

MPP Plug-In’s

January 28, 2008

Antispam Plug-In’s

Cloudmark Antispam Plug-In Our personal favorite antispam plug-in.
Based on Cloudmark Authority, this plug-in is characterized by very high throughput, high
accuracy and low false positives.  A great all around spam scanner and our most popular.

Commtouch Antispam Plug-In A customer favorite, this module features
Commtouch RPD technology and is excels with image spam and its fast response to new attacks.  It has great performance and high detection rates. Layer this plug-in with our Cloudmark plug-in and
MPP’s accuracy is second to none in the antispam industry.

Mailshell Antispam Plug-In Mailshell has the most complete platform support, including
Mac OS X, and has very good detection capabilities. Lots of tuning options makes Mailshell great for those who like to tinker.  This is the only commercial spam plug-in that supports Mac OS.

SpamAssassin Antispam Plug-In A performance dog compared to other options, but hey, it’s free.
MPP speaks to spamd and has some cool capabilities like the ability to load balance amongst multiple local or remote instances of spamd

Antivirus Plug-Ins

Sophos Antivirus Plug-In Our personal favorite. The fastest, most complete platform support, great detection fast updated. MPP uses the SAVI library.

F-PROT Antivirus Plug-In The price leader for commercial AV plug-ins. Good platform support,
respectable performance and fast updates. MPP uses F-PROTD.

NOD32 Antivirus Plug-In Made for our NOD32 distributors an only available through them.

Kaspersky Antivirus Plug-In Real fast, legendary engine. We use the API, not the command line scanner.

McAfee UV Scan Our interface uses the command line scanner, but we have daemon-like interface to it. This interface makes us far more efficient than other interfaces to the command line scanner. You must have your own licensed copy, we don’t sell this one.

ClamAV Free, but very good. MPP has 2 interfaces, one to libclamav for testing purproses and one to  clamd that is intended for production.
