What are your thoughts on this next acquisition of SolarWinds?

We have some exciting news to share with you.

    I'm not surprised, they've been doing this over the years. SolarWinds has their hands in too much from what I've noticed.

    Reminds me of IBM...

    Let's hope they won't increase pricing... But then again, it wouldn't surprise me if they did :')

    Spam Experts is a good option because it's fairly affordable, especially on the web host license. Would be a pity if they drifted off this model.

    Yes, fuck us and increase the prices because why not.

    Indeed, I like it so far as well :-D And the filtering does fairly good, except they managed to kill emails coming from Enom systems recently :|

    You can't compare them much IMO, the billing model works very differently, MailChannels charge per 1k emails that you sent, where SpamExperts charges for the amount of filtered domains, but not on the amount of emails.

    I also like MailChannels more for outgoing filtering than SpamExperts, it seems to have less false positives, where the incoming filtering for SpamExperts are literally amazing.

    Also I don't think anyone with SpamExperts contracts are actually allowed to discuss pricing.

    Understood. Thank you. I have been considering to implement Mail Channels. Still need to think about it.

    There are 2 ways to do it: manually add the code to the mailserver config or via a plugin

    You can always upgrade... Start small

    Ah so there is a plugin?

    Yeah planning to but there is a user that keeps using too much and I cant just kick them out. I would need 10k at least... I need to ask him to stop sending so many emails about his blog.
