BackupAssist v7.4.5 – Hyper-V fix for Server 2012 R2
There's a new minor BackupAssist release today and if you run system protection jobs on Hyper-V host machines, it's one you'll want to make sure you download.

I'm pleased to report that as always, BackupAssist have been quick to respond and within a couple of days we now have this fix.

This now officially expands BackupAssist SQL support to include:

MDaemon 14 was released earlier this week and with it, an updated webmail client with a snazzy new look and feel.
Outlook has a tendency to hog large chunks of memory and this, coupled with the cost of the licencing means that there's an emerging market of users like myself who are looking for an alternative.
If you're not already familiar with Rsync, it's the method (or 'protocol' to be posh about it) that BackupAssist uses to send data off-site to locations such as NAS boxes or to other servers.
QNAP make a NAS device that's popular with our customers and this week I came across an issue with backing up via Rsync to it that I've seen before...

call time on Small Business Server has created a noticeable boost in demand for 'on-premise' email server software that will play nicely with Server 2012.
Small businesses unwilling or unable to follow the Microsoft route of moving everything to the cloud have been left looking for alternative suitors to Exchange that can offer the same experience for their Outlook, Web and mobile device users.
