Mayflower Software Adds Dual Engine to SpamSentinel for IBM Lotus Notes and Domino


ORLANDO, Fla. January 21, 2008 -- Mayflower Software today announced that its latest version of leading anti-spam solution for IBM Lotus Notes and Domino, SpamSentinel, now includes a second engine to identify and block spam. The release of SpamSentinel Duo has been in response to increasing amounts of unsolicited mail, which now make up over 90% of inbound Internet messages.

"With this two-pronged approach, we can now further classify incoming spam and block 99.8% of it. In addition, around 80% of spam can be safely deleted before it reaches your mail system. And, the small risk of false positives is even further reduced!", said Frank Paolino, CEO of Mayflower Software and the product's chief architect. "We have also 'split' the two engines, to provide load balancing and redundancy".

Mayflower's customers agree:

"I can't even begin to estimate the money SpamSentinel has saved us in terms of work lost due to spam. Our users are very happy and so are the bean counters.

Many of our users have mobile devices through which they stay in touch with their clients via email. SpamSentinel has made these devices a pleasure to use by filtering out unwanted spam. My users are able to concentrate on meeting their client's needs.

SpamSentinel has made our email useful again!"

"Before switching to SpamSentinel, our anti-spam solution required so much administrative attention that I was spending 10 hours a week managing it. Now, on a bad week I might spend 10 minutes and on average it's more like 10 minutes per month.

The ease of administration is only half of this pretty picture, though! Since we are a Lotus Notes shop and SpamSentinel was designed specifically for Lotus Notes, we haven't had to do any end-user training!

Let's face it, stopping spam isn't always considered a critical part of the business. It's an annoyance, so why waste any more time on it? SpamSentinel is fast, efficient, and has afforded me the ability to spend my time on more important issues".

SpamSentinel Version 7 also includes an industry recognized anti-virus option that will work alongside or in the place of existing anti-virus programs.
