"It is becoming more and more common that when an
e-mail server goes down, an enterprise's entire communication
infrastructure goes down. With many places using e-mail as their
"official" means of communication, it's no huge leap to realize
that when the mail servers go down, communication stops dead in its
tracks. In some cases some people actually don't know what to do
and have no other means of communication. One could go so far as to
say that e-mail has brought the world into a new era of easy-to-use
and instant communication between two people in the next cubicle,
country, or continent. However, this instant communication carries
with it the drawback of needing high availability to keep a
business viable.
With such a high demand placed on the uptime of the e-mail
server, it is no wonder that many IT decision makers are turning to
the Unix platform to run their mail server software, since it is
known to have a higher percentage of uptime in the field.
As with any Unix-type software package, GLMail from Gordano
offers considerable advantages in security and stability that set
it apart from other mail servers. GLMail runs on many different
distributions of Linux; there are even versions of the software for
Win32 and Solaris machines. GLMail also supports the majority of
standard e-mail and support protocols in existence today."
