Rackspace Selects Ipswitch's IMail Server Secure.
2007-01-08, HostMan.biz
Ipswitch, Inc., a leading developer of network management, messaging and file transfer solutions, today announced that Rackspace Managed Hosting has selected Ipswitch's IMail Server Secure as the basis for expanding their managed email server offering, which will now include anti-spam and anti-virus. Rackspace began offering managed IMail services in 2004, upgrading its offer to include the new security capabilities in Ipswitch's IMail Server Secure, which gives Rackspace customers the power to virtually eliminate spam and false positives (legitimate email messages mistakenly marked as spam) and operate email in a safe and secure manner, preventing issues that can cripple a business with few dedicated IT resources.
"We needed to offer IMail to our customers in a way that was conducive to how we run our business," said Alberto Sandoval, product manager, Rackspace Managed Hosting. "Ipswitch worked with us to design a business model where we can offer our customers dedicated email servers on a monthly basis, complete with all of the most important security features. Coupled with an easy-install and flexible license model, we have been able to deliver a feature-rich dedicated mail server that is attractively priced for our customers."
"We started the Rackspace program as a pilot in 2004, with the idea that it was time to develop a business model that enabled Rackspace to offer IMail to their customers in a way that fit their business model," said Patrick Loring, director of business development at Ipswitch. "The Rackspace installation has met and in many cases, exceeded our expectations. As a result of this success, we can offer IMail to customers through Rackspace that we wouldn't normally reach -- companies that don't have the resources to host their own email server, but still need a flexible, dedicated and robust email solution."
