Ultimate Mail Service

Ultimate Mail Service is the newest offering from Network Safety, a leader in secure internet services. Mail Service provides a remote repository for your company's (or family's) email until your server connects and fetches it. The features include:

An always available destination for email addressed to your domain.
Security for your network since the Internet is unaware of your internal servers.
Lets you use a Demand Dial Connection with unmatched convenience.
We're independent of Your Favorite Internet Service Provider.

Always Available to Accept Your Mail

Our Mail Service hosts are permanent residents of the Internet, and are always listening to take email for your domain. We are always there for you, no matter what Internet Service Provider you use, what kind of host you prefer, or whether your host machines are powered up.

We can even provide "finger services" for you, to help the outsiders determine your users' correct addresses.

Your Local Network is Secure

Your company network is secure, because you have no email server visible to the Internet. Forget the patches and fixes as new bugs are discovered in your server code. Your server initiates the connections to us to send email and fetch your email. The Internet cannot access your mail server at all.

Actually, they will be trying to break into our network, since your email relay machine appears to be here. We're ready for them. Secure Internet Services are our specialty, not your problem.

Use Demand Dial if You Wish

Normally, if an email connection "comes and goes" from view of the Internet, the email servers around the net have lots of stacked-up email for them. This is very annoying to the administrators of the originating systems, and should be very embarassing to the administrators of the addressed domains. Because "your email server" (as viewed by the Internet) isn't at your site, your site may "come and go" at will, to budget connection time or for any reason, without the knowledge or concern of anyone but you. Your email is buffered on our Mail Service host, ready to be sent to you when you poll us.

Other Related Services

We offer a number of other, related services for you. The one most directly related to electronic mail is "finger." The finger protocol was developed to help determine the email address of someone, when other information was known. For example, if you know a person's last name, you could finger that last name at the destination domain, and hope to get back the email address. The benefits are obvious... the risks are less obvious. The unscrupulous will use this to discover account names to attempt to penetrate. In your case, no servers of yours are accessible to the outside bad guy, so you may give them some information without concern. We recommend that the information you give them be strictly useful in emailing, though. Actual internal account names should be withheld, and standardized email aliases should be given instead. You manage the aliases in your world, behind your firewall. You update the "finger" database at our site via email.

We're Independent of Your
Internet Service Provider

We know that each of you has reasons to select a particular ISP. Some great reasons are:

Longtime corporate relationship.
Superior service in your geographical area.
Outstanding rate structure.
Reputation for high ethics and security standards.

We're delighted to support you, no matter which ISP you select. In fact, you can change your ISP on a regular schedule and have no interruption in email service. No matter what Internet Addresses you have, our servers are fixed in address, ready to accept your email as you go on with your business.
