[September 27, 2005] Romanian software maker launches new, AXIGEN mail server Tweet The Associated Press Romanian software maker GECAD Technologies launched the first commercial version of its AXIGEN mail server on Tuesday, the company said. AXIGEN includes a message filtering system, Webmail with a folder tree structure, transparent encryption and a high capacity of mail storage, the company said. "The first commercial version targets small companies, but also corporations that have Internet networks and want a fast, secure and flexible mail server," GECAD Technologies CEO Oana Bornaz said. The mail server, which was available in a beta version and was tested for three months, will be presented at the Binary IT convention in Bucharest this week and at next month's Linux World Expo in London. AXIGEN is available now only for Linux distributions, with the company expecting to release Windows, MAC OS and BSD versions before the end of the year. The server is offered free of charge for companies with up to nine mail users. A business edition version is priced starting at US$195 (euro162) on AXIGEN's web site. The server was developed by a team that also worked on the antivirus program RAV, after the RAV technology was sold to Microsoft in 2003, the company said. Mail servers send messages between different users or servers, with clients connecting through applications such as Outlook, Eudora, Pegasus or browsers such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla. ___ On the Net: http://www.axigen.com [ Back To TMCnet.com's Homepage ]
