Mailspect Joins Forces With Gen8 Solutions

Mailspect, Inc. announced a new partnership with Gen8 Solutions, the creator of the Emailchemy and Harvester email import and migration technologies to better support legacy email formats such as PST files.

Mailspect MPP Green Architecture

With this partnership, Mailspect is extending the benefits of the MPP Green architecture to unify email stores of virtually all varieties into web accessible, searchable and optimized archives. MPP Green can now unify email formats like Microsoft’s PST, and many other proprietary and outdated formats.

MPP Archive offers a comprehensive email archive solution that is ideally suited for environments that have strict archive and discovery requirements but want an open and cost-effective Linux based solution. MPP archives, indexes and optimizes real-time email streams from MS Exchange and popular MS Exchange replacements like Zimbra, Zarafa, Scalix, Open-Xchange and others. With the recently announced MPP Green architecture, MPP Archive intelligently imports proprietary and standards-based mail stores such as IMAP and GMAIL and provides efficient single instance storage and cross-mailbox searching. It de-dupes emails, strips duplicative attachments, scans based on content inspection rules as well as cleanses and purges long-dated emails. MPP Green converts fragmented mail stores to indexed, full-text searchable, centralized archives. As such, MPP Archive can serve as the basis for email lifecycle management.

Using the Harvester option, MPP Green can automatically find and import private PST folders stored on end-user desktop and laptop disk drives. These capacities will enable mail administrators to centralize disparate mail stores into a single, searchable email archive.

Aggregating email stores improves compliance with corporate and government email retention and retrieval rules and regulations.
In addition, the new MPP Green extensions can import email from all of the following email servers: AOL for Windows (PFC files), Claris Emailer for Macintosh, CompuServe Classic for Macintosh (aka MacCI”), CompuServe 2000 for Windows, Entourage (Database, .RGE Archives and cache files), Eudora, Mac OS X Mail, Mozilla, Mulberry, Musashi, Neoplanet, Netscape, Opera, Outlook for Windows (.PST and .OST files), Outlook Express for Macintosh, Outlook Express for Windows, Outlook Express for UNIX/Solaris, PowerTalk/AOCE for Macintosh, QuickMail Pro for Macintosh, QuickMail Pro for Windows, Thunderbird, Yahoo! Mail and any UNIX-style or mbox-format mailbox.
