Spam Must Be Stopped

I found the recent news from Message Labs highly disturbing that detailed the growing use of social engineering spam attacks, as in cyber-thieves learning as much about their spam targets as possible, even sending fake messages to the wives of CEO's, trying to find any weak spot in a companies security so as to gain access and do damage.

And with MPP 3.4, we have vastly improved on an already excellent email protection platform. Below is one way Message Partners' can help stop spam, phishing, and virus attacks:

You can now use MPP within Procmail scripts, so say you have on local delivery a Procmail script that says ‘scan all messages,’ this gives you access to all our scanning modules such as Cloudmark or Commtouch. So say you have Procmail script send us the messages, we scan it, send the result back to Promail, then Procmail takes the appropriate action.

This would save a lot of time for the customer because if they want to use Cloudmark in a Procmail script they would have to license the Cloudmark engine, do the development work, and that can very time consuming from a business perspective and a technical perspective.
