You want to buy your SM from Declude ;) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hirthe, Alexander Sent: Monday, March 10, 2008 5:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: AW: AW: [Declude.JunkMail] Hardware upgrade -Software Crossgrade? or maybe not? :-) http://www.smartertools.com/forums/t/17365.aspx Thanks for the info, I'll give it a try. ________________________________________ Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] im Auftrag von Gary Steiner [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Montag, 10.

performance.
That's true, and I'm sure I will install IMail 8 on the new server to get
an easier migration. (and to be sure, to work on just one case)
That's the thing I must do, exchange the hardware. To small disks, to slow
CPU. RAM would be ok.
The second part (Update the Software) would be nice, even if there will be
more support calls after upgrading.
Ø My suggestion is that both problems would be relieved by introducing a
mail gateway in front of your mailboxes. In the Windows world, Alligate and XWall are popular with Declude/Sniffer users on this list and the Sniffer support list. With either one, I think you will find that the gateway will take the brunt of the antispam effort, leaving the back-end server to service mailbox connections and requests.
We use NoSpamToday as a front end server, and this lowers the incoming
spam very well.
The "problem" is, we are getting more and more customers :-) and they all
want a good working email system.
Ø If your existing hardware is old, you could replace the fans and disks
and have it become your new gateway, while you purchase some new hardware for your back-end, which will scale much higher than before once the back-end has to do less antispam processing.
We bought a new piece of hardware for the frontend Antispamserver..... Ø p.s. Did you have a third problem? Were you implying that the
feature-set of IMail is no longer to your liking?
Is there anyone really using IMail 9? Especially if you had Imail 8
before?
I'm paying about 1000$ every year, and I haven't seen a really good
working version of IMail since 8.22.
I tried it on my testserver, put some domains on it, and it didn't worked
like it should.
I called support, mailed support and it was not getting better. So I put it away and tried it some month later again. IMail 9 was (is)
getting better and better, but still it's not as stable as I want it.
Today I installed Smartermail and it's nice, easy to handle, has a nice
webinterface, and it's *cheap*.
I thought about dumping the IMail SA and buy Smartermail for that price :) That's the reason for the Mail. IMail 8 is working, but it's old. And I think, there could be a better software than IMail 8 :-) Alex ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of

detection is not perfect and overall system performance is getting worse.
Should we - wait for IMail 10? - use IMail 9? - stay with Imail 8? - move to Smartermail? We host about 200 domains, with about 2000 Mailboxes.
