Just last week, I received notice from IPSwitch that the new version of Imail server v11 has been released. Imail server is the software that has been running the School of Continuing Education email system going back several years. A number of new features and capabilities have been added in Imail version 11:

-IP REPUTATION SERVICE FROM COMMTOUCH.
Commtouch’s edge protection efficiently stops the majority of unwanted emails from ever entering your network, saving on both bandwidth and infrastructure costs. By accessing real-time IP reputation data provided by Commtouch’s GlobalView Mail Reputation service, IMail Server Premium can block malicious senders during the SMTP transaction, before any data has been sent.

-NEW AND UPDATED SERVICES.
The SMTP Service has been rewritten using .NET for performance and stability for a better and more reliable mail delivery. The updated Web Administrator has been rewritten to use ASP.Net 2.0 to provide better performance. The all new Console Administrator has also been written in .NET to provide network administrators a single console to control all aspects of their IMail Server.

-MOBILE SYNCHRONIZATION.
IMail Server v11 now supports push email and contact data to supported Windows Mobile devices that offer mobile synchronization of contacts, calendar, email, tasks and notes (Blackberry and iPhone support coming soon).

For more information, take a look at the following links to the Imail Server Blog and Release notes for Imail version 11:
