I'm thrilled to announce that we've just put the latest major release of the fantastic MailStore Server live on our site.
Below you'll find a quick round-up of the features I think you're most likely to find of interest, but if you'd like the detail in full, as always the release notes are available here.
Last week Neil and I traded our keyboards and mice for a transit van filled with exhibition equipment, half a tonne of assorted promotional items and a rainy afternoon on the M4. Our mission, to capture the attentions of a good chunk of the 12,500 attendees to InfoSecurity Europe and talk to them about our core products, BackupAssist, MailStore and MDaemon.
Over the past 12 months we've been actively involved in passing feature requests back to MailStore on behalf of our customers, and its great to see how many of these...
One of the things I like about MailStore is the simplicity with which local users can be managed, so I wanted to take a moment to provide you with an overview of the various options available to you in this area.
Before I start, I should point out, that for each member of staff having their email archived, an account must be created in MailStore and a user licence allocated.
One option is to create accounts manually within MailStore, entering the relevant information for each, which will typically include passwords, email addresses and access rights. This works perfectly well for smaller installations, but when dealing with more than a handful of user accounts it does start to make more sense to consider synchronising your MailStore user list with an external user directory service.
MailStore "Home" has been gaining some real momentum globally as a great little solution for single users who want to archive their mail securely.
Following more than 1,500,000 free downloads of MailStore Home to date, German developer deepInvent have responded to consumer feedback and introduced a range of new and sought-after features to MailStore Home 5 which went live today on their site.

The author J. Peter Bruzzes, who's an MVP and director of Exclusively Exchange gave a summary of the install process in his test lab environment. Not that we had any doubts, but we were extremely pleased to read his subsequent feedback which included quotes such as "I liked MailStore Server. I liked it a lot because it was incredibly easy-to-use, extremely flexible, reasonably priced and well supported".
Whenever I talk to companies about email archiving, the phrase "Yes, we keep copies of all our email" usually crops up pretty quickly, perhaps indicating there's no longer anything else...
