<p>MILL VALLEY, CA - January 5th, 1998 - After the successful launch of the<br />
Stalker Internet Mail Server, Stalker Software announces the CommuniGate<br />
Pro messaging server for the Rhapsody family of operating environments.</p>
<p>The new reincarnation of the CommuniGate integrated messaging system<br />
unifies the performance and standard-compliance of the SIMS with<br />
flexibility and powerful features of the modular MacOS CommuniGate System.</p>
<p>The CommuniGate Pro is based on the Rhapsody Foundation framework and can<br />
run under all operating systems supported with the Rhapsody "Yellow-box":<br />
Rhapsody for Power Macintosh, Rhapsody for Intel, and the Yellow Box for<br />
Windows NT. The ability to run on all these platforms is extremely<br />
important for the today heterogeneous networks.</p>
<p>The CommuniGate Pro design employs many modern OS techniques, especially<br />
multi-threading. Unlike other servers that use one separate thread to<br />
process a message, messages in the CommuniGate Pro are processed with 4-6<br />
threads on their paths to destinations. For high-volume sites, such as<br />
major ISPs, this means a huge performance benefit, especially for<br />
multi-processor servers. The CommuniGate Pro server is completely SMP<br />
(symmetric multiprocessing) -ready.</p>
<p>The SMTP component of the CommuniGate Pro server incorporates all the anti-<br />
spamming features implemented in the CommuniGate SMTP and Stalker Internet<br />
Mail Server.</p>
<p>The POP and IMAP components of the CommuniGate Pro server allow for<br />
simultaneous access to mailboxes, and include the accounting features of<br />
the CommuniGate POP module.</p>
<p>While the server speed, stability and relatively small footprint are the<br />
features that all network administrators are looking for, the CommuniGate<br />
Pro Server delivers one more advanced tool that has been eagerly awaited:<br />
remote administration via Web.</p>
<p>The server can be configured, controlled, and monitored from any computer<br />
on the Internet using any Web browser application. The administrators can<br />
monitor the Server status, and they can create, update and modify user<br />
accounts, distribution lists and auto-response ("vacation") messages, check<br />
the status of the queued messages, delete and redirect messages in the<br />
queue, update the communication modules settings, and configure the<br />
full-featured built-in CommuniGate Router.</p>
<p>As the CommuniGate system brought the modular architecture to<br />
communications, the CommuniGate Pro brings modularity to the account<br />
serving. Besides the unix-style mailboxes that can be processed with any<br />
legacy mail application, special modules can store messages in data bases,<br />
in folder-type mailboxes, and in other types of storage. The POP and IMAP<br />
clients of the CommuniGate Pro server have access to all types of<br />
mailboxes.</p>
<p>Here is the short list of the major CommuniGate Pro features to illustrate<br />
its unique abilities:</p>
<p>The server Router can route messages on a per-domain and on a per-account<br />
basis. The Router supports:</p>
<p> * domain-level routing;<br />
* account-level aliasing;<br />
* foreign account aliasing.</p>
<p>CommuniGate Pro can handle accounts for multiple domains. The Multi-Domain<br />
features use the Router and include:</p>
<p> * direct mapping;<br />
* domain-based account name mapping;<br />
* "true multihoming" for systems with multiple IP addresses.</p>
<p>CommuniGate Pro supports dial-up client mail servers with registered or<br />
virtual domains:</p>
<p> * For systems with dynamic IP addresses: Unified Domain-Wide<br />
POP Accounts can be created.<br />
* For systems with static IP addresses: SMTP feeds using<br />
RFC1985 (ETRN) are implemented.</p>
<p>The SMTP subsystem has "anti-spam" features. The Server can:</p>
<p> * stop strangers from using the server as a mail relay;<br />
* reject mail from the IP addresses of known offenders;<br />
* verify return-path validity to reject mail from<br />
"unreachable sources";<br />
* reject mail from certain domains or from certain accounts.<br />
* use DNS-based black-list servers.</p>
<p>The CommuniGate Pro accounts subsystem supports:</p>
<p> * multiple mailboxes per account;<br />
* various mailboxes types (files, folders, data bases);<br />
* POP and IMAP access to accounts and mailboxes;<br />
* simultaneous access to a mailbox for several clients;</p>
<p>The CommuniGate Pro Automated Processing (Rules) subsystem supports:</p>
<p> * multiple rules per account<br />
* all selection criteria found in IMAP<br />
* automatic actions including redirecting,<br />
auto-replying, deleting, notifying, and<br />
custom-application processing.</p>
<p>CommuniGate Pro allows for remote password modifications and new mail<br />
notifications.</p>
<p>As the other Stalker mail servers, the CommuniGate Pro has a centralized<br />
System Log. The Server kernel and all its components generate Log records<br />
of any specified level of detail, simplifying troubleshooting. The Server<br />
Web interface provides real-time access to the Logs.</p>
<p>AVAILABILITY: The CommuniGate Pro server for Rhapsody is available for<br />
qualified beta-testers free of charge. E-mail to (<a href="mailto:pro-beta@stalker.com">pro-beta@stalker.com</a>) to<br />
apply.</p>
<p>The (<a href="mailto:cgatepro@stalker.com">cgatepro@stalker.com</a>) mailing list similar to those for Stalker MacOS<br />
mail servers is opened for beta-testers.</p>
<p>The commercial version of the CommuniGate Pro will be released at the same<br />
time as the commercial version of the Rhapsody environment.</p>
