Commtouch does have a restriction. The condition is: a. "ISP" shall mean an internet service provider or managed solution provider.
What this means - if you are an ISP as defined by Commtouch, your primary function is to provide Internet service to your customers (like Comcast) or your business provides managed services (Like MXlogic) clean-and-forward of emails. Secondly, if your business is part of the ISP category you can use Commtouch with the added cost of $3.60 per user per year. And finally, the yearly cost and payments to Commtouch for NON-ISP perpetual license Declude customers is being absorbed by Declude.

The list archives show that as of the last public communication, CommTouch is allowed for [a] people who are not considered service providers or [b] people who are service providers, but who are "legacy" Declude customers holding a perpetual license prior to the integration of CT. > I host mail for my clients (we are not an ISP though), so can you > clarify if I am able to use the CommTouch feature? It's my understanding from David's remarks in the past that if you perform store-and-forward between your organization and another (which seems to apply to you) and you are not a legacy customer, you are not allowed to use CT. Though perhaps if you charge nothing for the service on paper (not just a loss leader, but a non-item) then maybe you still aren't a service provider? I presume, though it is far from clear, that when David refers to eating the cost of CT it is that he is eating the cost only for the legacy customers who operate service providers. If in fact Declude is absorbing the service provider sublicensing cost for all legacy customers, regardless of how each customer actually deploys Declude, that is unfortunate but certainly not the fault of people whose real use of Declude should *not* legally trigger an associated Declude payment to CommTouch. Or if Declude has been absorbing the service provider sublicense for *all* current customers -- that is, that anyone can now use ZEROHOUR regardless of when they bought and how they use Declude -- that certainly was not well-presented to the community. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: sa...@cypressintegrated.com SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release / Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/downloa d/release/ http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/re lease/ --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
