MDaemon and dynamic, centrally managed signatures More is better. The mantra of the signature stuffer. From job titles and contact details to special offers and even instructions to save the trees. Nothing is off limits when it comes to providing 'useful' information to our lucky recipients by the medium of email footer. It's a perfect picture unless of course, you're the poor soul tasked with making sure the emails your company sends are consistent, professional and accurate. If you're that person, you're going to love this latest MDaemon release.

MailStore Email Archiving and GDPR E-mail archiving is an indispensable tool in the armoury of any company looking for a secure but accessible way of storing email. It's also an excellent way to tick a number of the boxes of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). I touched on this topic in a recent YouTube video and today the German vendor MailStore have released a new whitepaper detailing exactly how to fully support your GDPR compliance customers, available here.

BackupAssist version 10.3 Back in May of last year, there was a veritable buzz in the office as BackupAssist released v10, and with it their shiny new 'Cloud Backup' engine, designed at the time to work only with public cloud giants AWS and Azure. The buzz was partly around the potential for the new technology. Here was a backup engine that could happily back up large files over a WAN, that would encrypt, deduplicate and compress, and that could also be set up with very little effort. We mentioned then that this was the first iteration and in the newly released 10.3 you're seeing the next step. In this latest release, the Cloud Backup engine has been expanded to include support for WebDAV destinations, unlocking a wide variety of destinations including Windows machines, NAS devices, and third-party hosting companies.

Great news - it's here, and it's available for download now via our website. It's the latest update to MailStore Server, the email archiving software for Office365, Exchange and MDaemon. The highlight is a complete overhaul of the web search client, plus the introduction of digital signing for exported email in all three versions of MailStore. Last but not least, this release also sees the introduction of 'status reports' for the Service Provider edition. The developer's blog announcement mentions they're 'bringing the user experience and security to a new level'.  I can't argue with that from what I've seen so far, and the particularly interesting part is that this release is the developmental stepping stone for lots more in the way of improvements in the months to come.

In addition to supporting local destination media such as USB hard drives, network shares and RDX, BackupAssist also provides a way to back up important files and folders to a public cloud provider such as Amazon or Microsoft.

Designed to be an additional layer of protection to your local backup routine, the Cloud Backup Add-on is ideal for disaster recovery scenarios and popular with Hyper-V users who want an off-site location for Guest VM's.

In the second instalment of a new series where we focus on specific features, Neil walks you through setting up a job using the Cloud Backup Add-on, showing both the steps required in BackupAssist and what's needed in Azure.

Over to you Neil!
