From enews at lmi.net Thu Mar 8 11:21:09 2007 From: enews at lmi.net (Dan Callaway) Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2007 11:21:09 -0800 Subject: New spam filtering service from LMI.net Message-ID: <6D761920-D179-45AD-B5A2-11FD30E26893@lmi.net> Greetings! You are receiving this message because email for your domain is being routed through LMI.net. I wanted to let you know about a new spam filtering service that LMI.net is now offering. We call it SpamGauntlet. We have been fighting spam for many years, and it's to the point that over 60% of all incoming messages are being blocked at the border of our network because the messages are coming from known spam relays. Of the remaining 40%, a large chuck of that is also spam. Many of you are using SpamAssassin to help filter out this junk mail, but as you well know, a lot still gets through. The problem is that spammers are getting more and more clever about disguising their message to get past the SpamAssassin filters. We decided to enlist a third-party mail filtering service that we could resell to our customers. After looking at several vendors, we settled on Postini, who have been doing this for longer than anyone else. Postini has a whole fleet of engineers that do nothing all but come up with ways to correctly identify spam and virus-laden emails. In our tests, we have found that the Postini system was catching over 95% of the spam we were getting in out test mailbox, with not a single false positive. That is significantly better that we were able to do with our own home-gown spam filter methods. So, we became a Postini partner, and call this new service SpamGauntlet. How it works: Every domain has information attached to it which tells the rest of the works where email for this domain is handled (they're called "MX records"). For most of you, your domain email is handled by one of our mail servers, such as lanfill.lmi.net. When you sign up for SpamGauntlet, we modify the MX records for your domain such that mail will first flow through the Postini servers, where the spam and viruses are "quarantined", and the rest flows on to our mail servers, where you can then login and retrieve them. The beauty of this is that you don't need to make any changes to the way you get your email- it just works like always, except there will be almost no spam. No mail lost: Mail that Postini has found suspicious is not just deleted- it's held in "quarantine" on the Postini server. Once a day (or less often if you wish), you will receive an email showing you what emails have been quarantined. You can click right in the email to have a message deleivered if by the off chance it isn't spam. You're in control: Each mailbox comes with it's own login on the Postini Message Center. You can login and check all your quarantined email, as well as adjust the sensitivity of the Postini filters. Individual domains can be either white or black listed. See http://www.lmi.net/services/ msgcenter.pdf for a sample of the Message Center. Pricing: SpamGauntlet costs just $2 per month for each mailbox, plus a one- time setup fee of $10 per domain. If you have multiple email addresses going to the same mailbox (for example "sales@" and "info@"), that only counts as one mailbox. Satisfaction Guaranteed: If you decide that your don't like SpamGauntlet within the first 30 days, we will refund you your setup fee and the first month of service. Sign me up! If you are interested, you can just reply to this email. We already know what email addresses you have here, so we will confirm with you what addresses will be covered. If you have other domains that we aren't hosting, we can add those as well. You don't need to have email hosted here to use SpamGauntlet.
