Re: [WISPA] Email server for ISP
Hi, we are using from years a solution made using open-source software builded from scratch: 1) qmail SMTP-IN 2) postfix for SMTP-AUTH 4) Dovecot IMAP-POP3 5) central MySQL database 6) Score based spam classification: ClamAV antivirus + Spam Assassin + custom rules + black lists 7) qmailadmin + vpopmail for administration (both web and from shell) 8) Horde and Squirrelmail webmail ciao!

Re: [WISPA] Email server for ISP
why Zimbra? The reason why I Asked is that it looks more like an enterprise environment more than an ISP product (I hope I expressed the concept) The point is that maybe it's too difficult to use for an average user who only wants to download the emails. Question: does it have any API to be controlled by external softwares? Comments are welcome!

Re: [WISPA] Email server for ISP
I think I told you that we use SmarterTools, SmarterMail product. It does integrate with both Plesk and Enkompass/cPanel, if that fits your situation, and there is an API if you are looking to automate some stuff or pull stats. The main feature that I like is the simple file structure so backup/recovery is pretty simple from both server/mailbox level. It's also got allot of features our customers are asking for: ActiveSync, Email Archival, etc.. The support isn't the best, but I've only used the email support so far. We've run into a few bugs which happen quite often, but fixes do come out regularly. For the spam/virus we use both Vircom's ModusGate, and SmarterMail's built in CommTouch av/spam.

Re: [WISPA] Email server for ISP
I'm still getting settled in with Zimbra. For general users, I believe you can dummy Zimbra down, but then you have the extra functionality for internal use or for up-selling to business clients.You can easily implement a multi-server solution for redundancy and load sharing. My current implementation has 7 (virtual) servers and I can easily add more as demand requires. It also has one of the best webmail interfaces I've seen. http://www.zimbra.com/learn/customer-list.html They have a wide range of customers, including Comcast which has 17M+ customers. Many WISPs treat email as a disease, but I fully embrace it and consider it to be a linchpin in attracting and maintaining valuable customers. As far as APIs go, they do have a provisioning command line utility http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Bulk_Provisioning.

Re: [WISPA] Email server for ISP
I run the open source version, so it is free. I'm still working on various customizations of it. As far as the version I use, I believe it is one of the 7.1 releases. For me, I guess the platform isn't something different because my cable and phone companies both use Zimbra already.

Re: [WISPA] Email server for ISP
Zimbra has lots of nice features, one of the best one is that the Web interface is full featured, and looks very much like Outlook. Additionally if folks use the desktop client, the look and feel of it is consistent. Another subtle feature is that it allows for larger than 2 gig Mail boxes. The only bad part is .. that Zimbra is a Memory Hungry and due to the web interface being full functional, folks will use it Web interface as the primary interface.. thus one will have to make sure that the mail server is sized correctly to handle the Web load... FYI, Spam Virus protection on emails is best handled by external system... and not the mail server... You get the best of both worlds if you have two different systems doing this.. .rather than one. We have been using Katharion / now GFI Max service for years, has been an awesome system, for many many reasons.

A pop client is all they should guarantee and quite frankly most end users are lucky they get that with the amount they cost in support. I'm not saying this is the proper way, but if you're in the transport and IP business, then email is secondary.

Re: [WISPA] Email server for ISP
The real question to be asked is ... are you simply looking for a Email solution or do you want to provide a Complete Hosting Solution ? If you are going to do Email only, and walk away from offering Hosting (Web/Domain/DNS etc) you can choose a mail solution of your choice, anything from do it yourself OpenSource packages to Canned packages your choice of OS.. Linux or Windows etc.. preference on all of these items will end up dictating your choice.. If you want to look at the whole Hosting package.. you should look at a Control Panel Solution ( Plesk/HSperhe/Cpannel), this will give you a more complete platform ... And then you can make some further choices on how you want to implement it and host it More choices .. more decision :) Faisal Imtiaz Snappy Internet Telecom 7266 SW 48 Street Miami, Fl 33155 Tel: 305 663 5518 x 232 Helpdesk: 305 663 5518 option 2 Email: supp...@snappydsl.net On 1/8/2012 8:57 PM, Josh wrote: On Sun, Jan 8, 2012 at 12:18 PM, Paolo Di Francesco paolo.difrance...@level7.it wrote: Dear All I am wondering what you are using to give email boxes to customers.
