How does Postini work?

  • Your incoming e-mail passes through a meshed group of redundant BayArea.net "pre-Postini" servers for validation and pre-processing. From these servers the email is routed to Postini's automated filters, which are designed to detect suspected unsolicited commercial e-mail (or SPAM and viruses that may threaten your system or network.
  • Any suspicious email is re-directed to a users personalized, web-based, password-protected Message Center (it does not arrive at an individual user desktop or server in-box). Think of this as a quarantine area. In your Message Center you can read the quarantined email online, delete it, or deliver (forward) it to its original or alternate destination.
  • Your users receive email notifications, with login instructions, whenever suspicious messages are logged and isolated on their personal Postini Message Center site.
  • From their personalized Postini Message Center users can read the email online, delete it, or deliver (forward) it to your regular "me@bayarea.net" or "me@mydomain.com" mailbox.  From this site users can also setup the preferences for SPAM and virus handling and sensitivity.
  • Postini also lets users "block" specific senders (email from these senders will always be filtered and blocked). Users can also "approve" senders (their email will always be delivered).
  • The BayArea.net implementation of Postini works on a physical POP account user ID. Any email address or alias routed to this user ID will be redirected through Postini's filtering.  
  • Postini service is private and secure. Nobody has access to a user's e-mail but the you, the administrator, or the individual users. The administrator controls the filter settings and configuration parameters. Users can check on the filtered messages locked in their Postini Message Center at any time. Postini can also be easily turned off with only two mouse clicks.
