E-MAIL FILTERING SYSTEM PREVENTS SPAM AND VIRUS THREATS 

TO SMALL- AND MEDIUM-SIZE BUSINESSES

 

CHICAGO, April 17, 2006 - Drake Consulting, provider of technology
consulting services, announced the launch of MailLaunder.com, an easy-to-use
Web service that stops viruses and blocks spam before they reach
subscribers' networks. 

 

Using cutting-edge technology and an innovative set of rules, the
MailLaunder System sorts subscribers' e-mail, then it eliminates viruses and
quarantines spam so that it can be viewed by subscribers at their
convenience. All valid messages are delivered immediately. 

 

MailLaunder.com arrives in the market place as Internet viruses, spam and
"phishing scams" - attempts to gain password, credit card information and
other personal data -  continue to escalate from mere annoyance to major
impediment to American businesses. 

 
In fact, according to the Gartner Group, phishing cost U.S. banks and credit
card issuers $1.2 billion in 2003, when approximately 57 million Americans
received these types of messages.
 
And even more alarming for all types of businesses, the 2004 National
Technology Readiness Survey -  conducted by Rockbridge Associates and the
Center for Excellence in Service at the University of Maryland's Robert H.
Smith School of Business -  says that the cost of spam to American companies
in terms of lost productivity has reached $21.6 billion annually.

 

"But the affect on the general employee's productivity is just the tip of
the iceberg," says Don Drake, founder of Drake Consulting and lead developer
of the MailLaunder System. "There's also a tremendous drain on IT and Help
Desk resources as they battle these messages that can do irreparable damage
to company networks and proprietary information."

 

The MailLaunder solution uses all open-source technologies including:
PostgreSQL database, XMail mail server, Linux operating system, Perl code
and PHP front-end. It is recommended for individuals and small- and
medium-size businesses with their own domain name.
