Bizanga's Intelligent Message Processor to Integrate Goodmail's Certified Email
Most Scalable Email Processing Platform for ISPs to Support Trusted Email
London, UK and Mountain View, CA; May 23, 2006 - Bizanga, the developer of the most scalable and fully-featured Email and Message Processing Platform, the Intelligent Message Processor(R) (IMP), and Goodmail Systems, Inc., creator of the CertifiedEmail system for trusted email, announced today that the two companies would integrate CertifiedEmail into the IMP. CertifiedEmail authenticates inbound email messages, and the IMP provides the ability to process more than 4.2 million emails per hour on a fully integrated platform with industry-leading third-party applications.
The IMP with CertifiedEmail capability will be targeted to service providers and global corporations seeking a best-of-breed solution for processing high volume inbound email flows while simultaneously managing the validation of authenticated, trusted emails that can be delivered directly to recipients' server-level inbox with links and messages intact. In installations at operators across the world the IMP currently processes well in excess of 200 million e-mails per day. CertifiedEmail from Goodmail is supported by major mailbox providers AOL and Yahoo!. The service went live this month with its unique cryptographic token solution enabling accredited volume senders to have their email communications delivered as CertifiedEmail.
"CertifiedEmail is an inevitability in this market as senders, mailbox providers, and users all seek a means of restoring trust to email communications, "said Marc Sheldon, Chief Marketing Officer for Bizanga.¡§With more than 70% of inbound emails of little value to the customers they serve, service providers need an easy to deploy and scalable solution that can handle massive inbound message volumes, protect against blended security threats, and reliably deliver the wanted email. We are very happy to offer our customers the unique combined capabilities of the IMP with CertifiedEmail."
For Goodmail, the IMP represents a new vehicle for mailbox providers to implement a turnkey system for validating and processing incoming CertifiedEmail messages. CertifiedEmail will be supported by some of the world's largest ISPs and other email mailbox providers, and Bizanga's IMP provides a uniquely scalable, easy to manage, and high-performance solution which can be reliably deployed at the outer edge of a service provider's infrastructure.
"We were extremely impressed not only with Bizanga's technological capabilities, but with the clear support it has enjoyed from world-class customers like Cox Communications and Neuf Cegetel in Europe," said Ken Hirschman, vice president of business development for Goodmail. ¡§We are delighted to be working with Bizanga, and feel that their platform will be an ideal means for service providers to quickly integrate high-performance CertifiedEmail validation and handling capabilities."
The combined solution, to be offered by Bizanga as standard functionality in future versions of the IMP, will be available in the third quarter of 2006.
