I recently found myself working on a project where I needed to calculate how much bandwidth the average MDaemon server uses - I'm hoping if you're an MDaemon user, you'll be able to help me out here.
Every server's usage is different of course - bandwidth will vary depending upon the number of users and the type and the number of emails, but I knew if I could arrive at an average across a handful of customer sites I'd be able to get close enough for my needs.
As Office365 and other hosted Exchange platforms continue to attract more users, we're starting to see more demand from customers looking for a way to keep an offline copy of their data 'just in case' the unthinkable should happen.
MailStore is perfect for automating this process, and while there's a good setup guide online to cover the basics, last week a customer called in asking for help with the more 'niche' requirement of setting up MailStore to archive email going to aliases in O365.
When Microsoft first unveiled Office 2013, they did at the time point out that it wouldn't be long before they withdrew support for Windows Vista, XP and Office 2003.
More recently however we've learned that Exchange 2003 is also on the 'chopping block', and that's forcing users to consider alternative email solutions.
Out of the box MDaemon has some very detailed logging and real-time statistics built into the application.
In this post I'll show you how to learn more about what a server's doing using the free Performance Monitor feature in Windows.
The latest BackupAssist release is now available on our site consisting mainly of small fixes - this may be of particular interest if you've experienced any oddities with the Centralised Monitoring Console (CMC).

I recently ran a survey among our partner program members (all IT support companies) to find out which, if any, of the various social channels they use 'frequently', to help us understand how best to keep in touch.
Of the 324 respondents the results were as follows:-
After a development period lasting a number of years and a successful beta phase that involved over 1,000 service providers, we are very pleased indeed to announce the release of the final version of the MailStore Service Provider Edition.
Depending upon on the design of your network, it may not always be possible to let MailStore Server automatically synchronise its list of user accounts with your Active Directory.
If that's the case, you way well find the alternative is to add users manually.
Following on from Part 1 of this guide where I explained how to create Exchange Granular Restore ("EGR") compatible backups in BackupAssist, in this second instalment I will look in more detail at how we can restore email from within the backups we have created.
