DAWKCo SMTP Rules Component
integrates with Windows® IIS SMTP Service (v5.0 or later) to regulate inbound e-mail traffic per admin policy. It is primarily used to: block spam; defend against phishing, hacks and exploits; and, to block non-deliverable inbound e-mail. Specifically, the DAWKCo SMTP Rules Component will control whether certain inbound SMTP protocol commands are accepted or blocked, based upon rules that are set by the mail system administrator.

With respect to the IP addresses and/or domains of all inbound SMTP connections, the DAWKCo SMTP Rules Component will implement and enforce: Reverse and Forward DNS Lookups; multiple IP-based and/or Domain-based DNSBL (Block List) Queries; Sender (MAIL FROM) Domain Mail eXchanger or Host DNS Lookups; DNSCCL (Country Codes List) Queries checked against a locally defined Country Codes Block List; and URIBL message scanning. Using these methods, the DAWKCo SMTP Rules Component spam blocker can block over 99% of all incoming spam (Unsolicited Bulk/Commercial E-mail, a.k.a. UBE or UCE) more efficiently than a filter, while defending against Phishing, and other abuse such as hacking exploits that could compromise or hijack your mail server.

The DAWKCo SMTP Rules Component can be used either with or without a coexisting DAWKCo POP3 Server installation*, but by implementing POP3 Mailbox Lookups, the SMTP Rules Component can block virtually all non-deliverable inbound e-mail to eliminate "Badmail" messages build-up due to non-deliverable DSN's (bounces).

*Only the POP3 mailbox lookups (Verify Local Recipients) option requires a DAWKCo POP3 Server Hosting or WebMAIL version configuration.

"By the way...for some reason my domain was targeted by a huge increase in spam, but I didn't notice until I looked at the [SMTP Rules Component] logs and [saw]...Thousands of spam mails have been blocked ... don't know what is happening but it's saved my mail system from being overwhelmed...hence, the reason I just put it on a customer server, and in [several] days [it] has...blocked over 2,000 [Spam messages] and I lost count somewhere [over] 20,000 in 3 months [on my system] -- the [SMTP Rules Component's] reverse DNS has been switched back on...and this reduced the contents of my junk mail folder by 100 a day.
 
"Great product!"

DAWKCo POP3 Server & MailDaemon e-Mail Routing Services -- POP3 e-mail server software programs that run as system services on all Windows 2000/2003 Servers (or later), Windows 2000/XP Professional, or Windows NT Server or Workstation 4.0. DAWKCo POP3 Server provides Internet and/or Intranet network clients with full-featured POP3 email mailbox services. Working in conjunction with the IIS SMTP Server Service included with Windows, the DAWKCo POP3 Server software includes a helper service called the MailDaemon e-Mail Routing Service, which routes incoming message files from the IIS SMTP Server's Drop to the recipients' POP3 Mailboxes.

DAWKCo POP3 Server Hosting Versions are equipped for larger scale virtual domain hosting operations, with support for an unlimited number of POP3 mailboxes in an unlimited number of Virtual Domains (up to system resource limits); and, it's available at a price that any small business can afford!

DAWKCo POP3 Server Hosting Version with WebMAIL Extension adds Web-based e-mail client functionality, so your hosted POP3 users can also access their POP3 mailboxes using any Internet Standards-based Web browser. With DAWKCo WebMAIL, clients can Read or Download messages and/or attachments, Reply, Forward, Delete, Compose, Address and Send messages using their Web browser, optionally including local files as attachments to their outgoing messages. DAWKCo WebMAIL will also send MHTML encoded messages based on web pages that clients have access to.

"I am continually impressed with the DAWCo POP3 Server product. It is intuitive to install and administer, is very low maintenance, and meets the needs of our local, remote, and traveling users. ... I have received far better support from DAWKCo for free than I have from any other major developer, whether they charge for it or not. Based on the support I have received alone, this product would still be a value at 5 times the price."
