E-mail Filtering for Exchange: SurfControl E-Mail Filter for Exchange 2000/2003 Review
Date - Mar 01, 2005
Author - Henrik Walther
The purpose of this article is to give you a somewhat superficial review of SurfControl’s E-mail Filter for Exchange 2000/2003. Some of you might ask why it’s superficial; well there’s a simple answer for that, the product is way too comprehensive for an in-depth review, I therefore suggest you download your own trial version and give the product a go in your test lab, as that’s the only way to get a real insight into the product’s capabilities.
Add mail archiving to Exchange: GFI MailArchiver Review
Date - Feb 15, 2005
Author - Dan DiNicolo
You remember Steve, right? That’s Steve from Sales, the guy who needed access to an email that he deleted over a year ago. You probably remember the hassles of having to first find and then restore his mailbox. Perhaps you even recall sifting through his messages, trying to find that single, solitary email, and dedicating a whole afternoon to the process. Thankfully, things don’t have to be this way. I’m talking about a product called GFI MailArchiver, a message archiving solution that makes searching through internal and external email as simple as firing up your web browser and searching for the message in question.
Software Review: GFI FAXmaker for Exchange/SMTP
Date - Jan 10, 2005
Author - Brien Posey
Have you ever stopped to think about the fax machine in your office? Fax machines started to become popular in the 1980s. Since that time, fax machines have changed very little. Sure, they are faster than first generation fax machines, and some fax machines now support color, but generally speaking, fax machines are based on 1980's technology. In this article I've reviewed GFI FAXmaker. I installed the latest version onto my own network to see if it could help streamline my business. Here are the results.

Product Review: GFI MailEssentials 8 - Anti-Spam and Mail Monitoring
Date - May 18, 2003
Author - Dan DiNicolo
Out of the box, most email server products provide limited monitoring, security, and anti-spam functions. In those that do, the feature set tends to be weak and seemingly implemented as an afterthought. However, the new GFI MailEssentials 8 product from GFI Software not only provides the most comprehensive anti-spam capabilities currently available, but also industrial-strength mail monitoring, the ability to add disclaimers to all outgoing messages, and more. Impressively, GFI provides many of the product's best features as freeware, making GFI MailEssentials 8 a must-evaluate product for administrators of both large and small networks alike.
Product Review: eXclaimer for MS Exchange 2000
Date - May 16, 2003
Author - Lee Derbyshire
The need for email disclaimer messages is now fairly well established, yet there is still no built-in facility for configuring them in Exchange 2000. For this review, I have chosen to look at eXclaimer, a product that receives regular mention in the Exchange Usenet newsgroups.

Product Review: ReddFish Intergalactic's Ikakura list server
Date - May 16, 2002
Author - Will Schmied
There a more than a handful of third-party add-on applications for Microsoft’s Exchange Server 2000. The available products sometimes come as single purpose application and other times come as integrated packages that are designed to meet some, if not all, needs you may have above and beyond a base installation of Exchange Server. These products cover a wide range of areas, from administration to content checking to virus scanning and list servicing. Ikakura list server, by ReddFish Intergalactic is a fairly simple list server add on that will enable your Exchange Server to act a list server. I enjoyed working with Ikakura—after I got it installed and working, which was not as easy as I had hoped for.
