Anti-Spam Builder Debuts First Worldwide Free Trial for Filtering Appliances

June 01, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Traditional testing of network-based content filtering appliances has been fairly inconvenient. You pay the shipping. When the appliance finally shows up, you shoehorn it into your server room. If you don't like it, or decide you need more capacity, you pay for its ticket back home, after rounding up the original packaging and accessories (assuming you can find them). And woe is you if there's any damage to the device.

The expenses and inconveniences are even greater if the vendor is located outside your country.

Now you can try the convenience and security of an email border appliance hassle-free, no matter where you are located. When you sign up for dymeta's Worldwide Free Trial for trimMail Inbox at www.trimmail.com, your spam, virus and content filtering appliance is installed at dymeta. You can configure it from your workstation, as if it was onsite.

Assign individual controls to each domain administrator and enduser. Play with traffic shaping, along with phishing, spam, virus and content management. trimMail's tech support team will help you decide the best trimMail Inbox model for your organization.

trimMail Inbox Sales Manager Randy Miller notes that buyers appreciate the sizing help. "Email appliance specifications based on the number of messages per hour raise more questions than answers. For instance, how big are the messages? How spammy? How many different senders are they coming from? What's the mix of known and unknown senders?"

"The same thing applies to a filter sized by number of users. Depending on the mail stream, a busy twenty five person shop may need an appliance designed for twenty five hundred. The Worldwide Free Trial Program for trimMail Inbox lets organizations determine the right appliance for the job."

But pre-sale technical support and sizing assistance may take a back seat to the convenience of avoiding shipping hassles, especially for organizations outside North America.dymeta has set aside hundreds of megabytes of bandwidth for the project, enough to accommodate all but the largest operations.

Project Manager Aaron Gillette notes that people love the pre-sales help. "Once customers set up their trimMail Inbox themselves, they know exactly what will arrive on their dock. People like that. No surprises."

The trimMail Inbox Worldwide Free Trial program blurs the line between in-house and outsourcing. What if a company in, say, Singapore, decides it wants to buy the box, but leave it in dymeta's Server Room?

Miller responds, "We have designed an uninterruptible system on a self-healing SONET ring in the middle of the United States, far from any potential terrorist targets. It's not surprising when people with security concerns ask us to co-locate their trimMail Inboxes. When their servers go down, ours are still collecting the mail."

The trimMail Inbox Worldwide Free Trial program is available for qualified organziations across the globe.
