The Abaca CLX Anti-spam Solution is flexible enough to fit into any service
provider`s infrastructure and supports a variety of system architectures. The
Abaca CLX Anti-spam Solution, unlike competitive offerings, requires very little
maintenance, enables end users to efficiently manage their mailbox and helps
reduce customer support calls due to missing or misclassified messages. Fully
redundant deployment is easily accomplished to ensure reliable and consistent
service delivery. 

"Service providers are under constant attack by spammers, and the volume of spam
continues to grow," said Bill Kasje, Vice President Business Development of
Abaca Technology Corporation. "The unmatched accuracy and scalability of the
Abaca CLX Anti-spam Solution requires fewer servers to support hundreds of
millions of users reducing the power footprint, saving rack space, and
minimizing system administration costs. In addition to saving invaluable
resources Abaca`s solution also increases customer satisfaction helping to
improve loyalty and retention for email service providers." 

The proprietary and patent-pending technology behind the Abaca CLX Anti-spam
Solution, ReceiverNet, uses receiver reputations to filter spam. Using the
receiver`s reputation to determine the likelihood that incoming messages are
legitimate or not, ReceiverNet enables the Abaca CLX Anti-spam Solution to
effectively block a minimum of 99.9 percent of spam, along with viruses and
phishing attacks. The system learns and updates itself by the real-time tracking
of the ratio of spam versus legitimate email for each Abaca protected email
user, making spam detection even more accurate as email users join the Abaca
ReceiverNet Network. 

Abaca CLX Anti-spam Solution

The Abaca CLX Anti-spam Solution includes Abaca`s ReceiverNet Service, a
sophisticated email filter, with multiple integration possibilities. The
solution is installed in the service providers email stream providing advanced
protection against spam, viruses and phishing attacks. Additional features

* Simple rating API for quick integration into any service provider environment

Anti-spam Solution rating as input to augment an existing solution
