Mail Redundancy |
 |
If your business can afford to lose emails then you don't need any email redundancy. Loss of emails can happen when your mail server is not available (crashed, being rebooted or upgraded), or when your link to the internet for your mail server goes off-line or is temporary out of action.
Using MailWall you immediately get increased Mail Redundancy, through the use of 3 Incoming SMTP mail servers and infrastructure build on Industry best practice. This means 3 different Internet points of presence - separate network links in different physical locations, internet links and hardware - all DELL server hardware with M+1 redundancy.
Incoming Internet mail to MailWall will automatically pass through any of our incoming mail servers depending on how busy each one may be, ensure fast incoming collection of your email into our filtering system.
We provide monitoring services for your Mail gateway and internet connections, so that we both immediately know (via SMS alerts) when your system is unavailable. If your mail server is unavailable we will queue all your mail on your system, until you can restore your in house systems.
If your SMTP mail server or internet links are unavailable, we will queue your pending email for at least 24 hours, and then in discussion with you decide whether to let it return to sender or other actions in line with your disaster recovery policy.
In the event of disaster for your office infrastructure systems, we can divert your mail to be accessible in an Internet WebMail account. Or in conjunction with a formulation for your disaster recovery, we could have multiple emergency user WebMail accounts set up for your email system. Please feel free to discuss any of these redundant capabilities with us.
Note: Redundancy is the provision of multiple interchangeable components to perform a single function in order to cope with failures, errors and emergency situations. Redundancy normally applies primarily to hardware, but in this case also to internet network links, physical server hardware and software capabilities. For example, we maintain a total of six mail gateway server computers to do these tasks. Three of these are always active for incoming mail and the others form part of the tiered infrastructure for filtering at different levels. |
