In most cases, your email server is hosted by the same company that your website is hosted with. However, some companies prefer internal email servers. This ensures the ability to have permanent mail storage as well as having the ability to customise the size limits without incurring extra costs. Linux email servers are stable, feature rich and completely scalable.

Web-based Email

Linux email servers support POP3, IMAP, and Webmail access. These are universal standards that need to be available for flexible email access. With web-based email access you can access your emails in the office, or on the go.

Spam filtering

Spam has become a major issue on the net today and consumes costs and time. Linux email servers are robust enough to supply customizable features such as spam filtering.

Virus scanning

No business should go without fully-integrated virus scanning software and this is easily done within a Linux email server. With options such AmaViS and Clam AV your networked computers will stay safe from those nasty viruses.

Security

Linux email servers offer SMTP SSL Authentication and domain keys which help keep your server and emails secure. It is very difficult to exploit the Linux operating system, therefore your emails are safe and secure at all times.

Speed and Stability

Linux is a one of the most stable operating systems known today. Linux email servers are well known for their amazing up-time statistics and when it comes to efficiency you cannot go wrong as Linux boasts amazing speeds.

Scalability

With the Linux email servers using MySQL or Postgres as their back end storage, you can ensure that you will have enough room to keep expanding. Storage space is definitely not a problem when choosing Linux. With current common technology, your Linux email server can reach sizes of up to 16TB (terabytes).
