Add-On Licensing System

The release of SmarterMail 6.x will introduce the add-on licensing system, which allows SmarterTools or third-party companies to extend the software’s functionality across all SmarterMail editions. Initially, the following optional add-ons licensed by SmarterTools will be available for SmarterMail 6.x:

Commtouch Anti-Spam will be available as an optional add-on for SmarterMail 6.x, for those users who want to enhance the mail server’s ‘out-of-the-box’ anti-spam functionality.

Although, the SmarterMail 6.x will continue to provide up to 97% spam protection ‘out of the box’, the additional functionality of the Commtouch add-on is expected to provide customers with nearly 100% spam protection.
According to SmarterTools, the SmarterMail features a webmail interface, collaboration, reporting, throttling, on-board anti-spam/antivirus, synchronisation with Microsoft Outlook, BlackBerry, iPhone, and windows mobile devices, and an event-driven architecture that provides automated actions and notifications.

Commtouch is a great fit as a spam protection partner because its technology is complementary to SmarterMail’s existing techniques and the company has worked with us to create a licensing model that will make sense for our hosting and business customers.
