Web Administrator and Client

Web-based Administrator and Client

IMail Server

• IMail Server (Administrator) is an Internet standards-based mail server system for Microsoft® Windows® 2003, Microsoft® Windows® 2008 and Microsoft® Windows® 2012. It includes powerful administrative and anti-spam management tools all accessible via the Internet.
• The Web Administrator and Console Administrator includes a series of programs that run as services: SMTP, POP3, IMAP4, LDAP3. These services can be stopped and restarted from the Service Administration page as well as from their respective pages.
• IMail Server provides local or remote access to IMail Server administration features via the Console Administrator or Web Administrator. You can administer all e-mail functions, including users, groups, services, shared calendars, contacts, tasks, notes, anti-spam and anti-virus settings (available separately).
• Dictionary Attack A method used to break security systems, specifically password-based security systems, in which the attacker systematically tests all possible passwords beginning with words that have a higher possibility of being used, such as names and places. The word “dictionary” refers to the attacker exhausting all of the words in a dictionary in an attempt to discover the password. Dictionary attacks are typically done with software instead of an individual manually entering each password. Also,  an e-mail spamming technique in which the spammer sends out thousands or millions of e-mails with randomly generated addresses using combinations of letters added to known domain names in the hopes of reaching a percentage of actual e-mail addresses. For example, a dictionary attack list might begin with john@yahoo.com, john1@yahoo.com, john2@yahoo.com, and so on until all possible combinations of letters and numbers has been exhausted. Options provide settings to secure your IMail Server from attacker security breaches on passwords and e-mail addresses.
• Hacked Account Mail Regulator (HAMR) provides an added security feature for Administrators to control compromised email accounts, by limiting a users outbound messages once a maximum message limit with a certain time interval has been met.
• Spam protection provides the ability to put the IP address of a spammer into the Control Access list for a certain amount of time to keep the system from just reconnecting. Once the time period expires, the IP address is removed from the access list and is permitted to send mail again.

User Interface

A multi-featured main Web page allows easy administrative access to users, domains, collaboration settings for shared calendars, contacts, tasks and notes, services configuration, log viewing and management.

The IMail Console Administrator allows local administrative access to users, domains, services, log viewing and management. Collaboration settings can be accessed locally via the Collaboration Console Administrator.

IMail Web Client

IMail Web Client lets you send and receive mail using a Web browser. You can log in to the Web Client from a browser on any computer with a supported browser, and manage e-mail without installing e-mail client software. IMail Web Client directly accesses the server to manage mail. When a user creates a mailbox in the Web Client, the mailbox is created on the mail server and mail folders and messages reside on the server.

IMail Web Client replaces the current Web Messaging Client, Classic WebMail and Killer WebMail templates. This new web client sends and receives e-mail, lets you create contacts, calendars, tasks, notes and lets you organize and manage mail in folders.

If you used contacts or contact lists (distribution lists) in a previous version of Ipswitch Web Messaging or in Microsoft Outlook with the IMail Collaboration plug-in, the contacts contact lists, calendars, tasks and notes are automatically imported into the new IMail Web Client. A new Contacts folder is created that includes contacts and contact lists.

User Interface

A unified main Web Client page allows user-friendly access to critical e-mail functions: Inbox, folders, composing, personal settings, rule, contact, calendar, tasks and notes management, a lite client for mobile access and the ability to switch between the client and the administrator pages if you have Administrator privileges.

Ipswitch Instant Messaging

Ipswitch Instant Messaging (server) provides local or remote access to Ipswitch Instant Messaging administration features via a Web browser. You can administer all instant messaging functions, including users, public contact lists, stored conversations, and server access.

Additionally, Ipswitch Instant Messaging integrates with Microsoft® Office XP products by using Smart Tags. IIM Smart tags are person's names or e-mail addresses that are associated with an IIM contact. Microsoft Office automatically recognizes smart tags in any Office document.

IMail Collaboration

IMail Collaboration lets the people in your organization share their Outlook data, such as calendars, contacts, e-mail, tasks and notes, without the expense or expertise required by Microsoft Exchange Server.

Our patented Recurrent Pattern Detection (RPD) automatically analyzes collected traffic to provide accurate spam and phishing classifications based on a unique global view of outbreaks.

  CYREN's GlobalView™ Mail Reputation services are used primarily to weed out spam messages and email-borne malware at the entry point before these messages enter the customer’s messaging network, thereby relieving the need for resource-consuming downstream filtering. This is accomplished by applying the most up-to-date IP reputation data to the sender IP, before the SMTP connection is accepted.

  By applying GlobalView Mail Reputation services to the senders’ IP addresses before or during the SMTP session and before their messages enter the messaging network
