 COLLABORATIVE COMPUTING Messaging Backbone Switch: PMDF e-Mail Interconnect F or price and performance, Innosoft International's PMDF e-Mail Interconnect can't be beat. PMDF--the only central backbone switch for an enterprise messaging system that's designed and built on native Internet protocols--provides flexible management of messaging traffic and queues. It also can be used as an X.400 backbone with an X.500 directory system.
PMDF's flexible design allows the use of several directory methods: its own X.500 database, simple text files, public telephone directory databases, such as PH, or a custom-written directory server. In the area of security, PMDF offers anti-spoofing capabilities that prevent an unauthorized relay to the Internet, as well as the ability to segment internal and external users for the receipt of mail, making forged mail easier to detect.
The product scales from small enterprises to global messaging systems by providing multithreaded server management, which lets a clogged server automatically start another server on the fly. PMDF runs on Digital Alpha AXP, VAX/Digital Unix, OpenVMS a
nd Sun Microsystems' SPARCstation/Solaris.
