When your mail server (could be your own Exchange or
Lotus mail server) is offline and someone tries to send you an
email, the message will bounce back to the sender. In today's
fast paced environment customers don't have time to figure out
why your company isn't receiving email. This translates into
lost revenue, something no company can afford.
Not only is uninterrupted email service important to daily
business productivity, but it is also the single most effective
way to communicate, collaborate and expedite business processes.
Combined with Business Continuity Services and
MailServer.com.my Email Firewall services (virus scanning
and SPAM filtering), these unique and platform-independent
services are designed to ensure companies cannot afford to miss
critical email messages, regardless of the reason for - or
scale of - an unexpected email service interruption.
As companies are not required to purchase any additional
hardware or software, the services can be deployed quickly and
without capital cost. With the impact of business interruptions,
virus infections and SPAM attacks being measured in tens of
thousands of ringgits, Business Continuity services from
MailServer.com.my are very cost effective indeed. In fact,
it can be done for as little as RM10 per month.
The Backup and Recovery Solution provides an email store and
forward mechanism by utilizing our two-tiered backup email
servers in two different secure data centers. If the primary
mail server is unavailable, the backup email server will accept
email for the primary server. While accepting email for the
primary server, the backup email server periodically checks to
see if the primary server is back online. Once the primary
server is back online, the Backup Email Service forwards the
email to the primary email server and recipients can then
retrieve their email.
The Scenario
You hosted your own
email server at your office. Your server is somehow not
reachable due to unforeseen circumstances such as network
failure, bandwidth degradion, server crashed or even a schedule
maintenance. Your client are attempting to send you very
important emails. Your server bounced.
Without a backup and recovery solution hosted at a
geographically diverse mail server, this could happen:
Rejected
email
Your
email clog-up the sender's Email server

Features
MailServer.com.my provides dual secondary mail
servers (commonly called "store and forward") to store your
email in the event your primary mail server is offline for any
reason. Once your primary mail server returns online your mail
will be delivered to you. Our servers will continue to attempt
to deliver your mail every 15 minutes for a period of 7 days.
MailServer.com.my offers two backup mail servers to ensure
no two single points of failure exist. Should your mail server
and our mail server be offline at the same time your mail is
stored on our additional mail server located kilometers away and
connected to diverse Internet Service providers.

Virus Features:
All email that
passes through our servers is virus scanned. Any message

door Spammers” who attempt to jam Spam through backup email
servers.

Technical Implementation
Once you subscribe to our Backup and Recovery Solution,
our engineers will work with you and your IT staff to configure
your DNS zone(s). Each DNS zone (domain name) has a MX (mail
exchanger) record which specifies which mail server(s) will
receive mail for a given domain. Each MX record is given a
priority, the lowest being the primary mail server. Mail
delivery is first attempted to the lowest numbered priority mail
server. If the sending mail server is unable to connected to the
lowest numbered priority mail server, it will then attempt to
deliver the mail to the second lowest priority mail server and
so on. If no mail servers can be reached then mail is bounced
back to the sender.
