What is under the hood
Technical Terms: Challenge Response, Sender Policy Framework
The technology uses a white-list based front end. On the back end, it verifies new non-whitelisted senders by sending out an authentication email. Very similar to email address confirmation systems you have seen on web sites. The difference is that the sender does not have to take any action other than opening the email. Once opened the sender is validated and all emails including the first one go through. In some cases they may have to respond to the email. This is a backup measure for automated systems and non html email clients.
Whitelisting addresses is also accomplished by simply sending an email to someone.
There is a web based and software based access to quarantine. More on this below.
The result is an anti-spam rate far above any scanning based or blacklist based solution and a predictable quarantine.
The 'Big' objection
Automated emails such as an eCommerce order notification are blocked because the originating system does not respond. Think about this. SPAM would be 99.999% eliminated if email systems sending legitimate email would respond when asked to do so.
Nobody wants to fish through quarantine to get an email from some automated engine. Yet the collective Internet "we" are spending billions on anti-spam.
We have come up with some novel solutions, but the real answer is with those automating emails without responding to them. A simple auto-responder is all that it would take. Many systems DO respond now, but still, the majority do not get it yet. Until they do, this will remain the
one BIG objection.
Anti Spam that works best
By far this solution is superior to all other "solutions" because the other solutions block legitimate email in a random-like manner. Scanning solutions block emails based on content, black-list based solutions block email based on IP or some other form
of measuring trust. The problem here is that legitimate email is quarantined or blocked. The problem is magnified if no white-list at all is allowed to be implemented by the user.
With this solution it is ONLY when the user is expecting an automated email that is not yet whitelisted and does not respond that they may have to go to quarantine. This predictability is far superior. In addition, there is hope because this technology does offer
a chance that spam will end forever.
If we were to grow this solution in popularity and the users demanded from those automated emailers that they respond in order to get their emails through, it would happen. Until then, we are left trying to work around this problem.
But, the problem is relatively small and as noted, predictable.
Who We Are
We are computer nerds that hate spam and put this technology together as a solution that we personally liked for ourselves. We then made it available to our customers and we now make this offer available to service providers. This project started back in 1995 and represents 15 years of research and development.
Pricing and the rest
Call us. We will work with any service provider of any size. Let us hear your plans and work with you to customize something that will fit your business perfectly.
