First launched back in 2008, SecurityGateway is the brainchild of Texas-based Alt-N technologies, developer of the popular alternative to Microsoft Exchange, MDaemon Messaging Server. When Alt-N realised that even users of Exchange were buying MDaemon to use as a pre-filter because of how well the spam and virus protection performed, it wasn't long before they took the decision to release a standalone, purpose-built product....enter SecurityGateway.

Cloud, private-cloud, multi-tennant, hosted, SaaS, service provider, xSP - the myriad of terminology used to describe products such as MailStore Service Provider Edition are practically endless it seems. This probably explains why lots of our partner program members, all typically IT support companies servicing SMB's, have been asking for further clarification around exactly what this new version of MailStore actually is and how it works before they've been able to decide whether it's right for them. For this reason we're now running a small number of free 30 minute(ish) webinar sessions which will answer the questions - "What is it?" and "Is it for me?". Essentially it is a high level overview and then time for a group Q & A.

This now officially expands BackupAssist SQL support to include: SQL 2014, SQL 2012, SQL 2008/R2 and SQL 2005.
