GFI, leading worldwide developer of messaging, content security and network security software for Windows administrators, has announced that its entire product range for Exchange supports Exchange Server 2003. GFI products for Exchange Server include GFI MailSecurity, which provides email content security and antivirus protection; GFI MailEssentials, which offers server-based anti-spam; and GFI FAXmaker fax server software.
"Our server-based anti-spam product, GFI MailEssentials and our email content security product, GFI MailSecurity will take advantage of Microsoft Exchange Server 2003's new anti-spam tool and its improved Virus Scanning API respectively. Microsoft's anti-spam tool is unique, and through it we can offer unparalleled spam protection. Exchange's open architecture enables Exchange users to add on best-of-breed products such as GFI's, making Exchange Server the best mail server solution available today," said Nick Galea, GFI CEO. “GFI FAXmaker expands the superior messaging functionality offered by Exchange by enabling users to send and receive faxes from Outlook.”
Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, the next major release following Exchange 2000, boosts information worker productivity through ubiquitous access to business-critical messaging and calendaring information, as well as security, manageability, availability and reliability enhancements to help further drive down TCO.
“Microsoft is excited to work with GFI to extend the capabilities of the Exchange 2003 platform,” said Kevin McCuistion, director of Exchange marketing at Microsoft Corp. “With GFI MailSecurity, GFI MailEssentials and GFI FAXmaker, GFI aims to offer Exchange administrators enhanced email security and anti-spam protection as well as smooth, administration-free fax serving.”
