It’s been a long time coming but Sunbelt’s Ninja product is finally seeing the light of day in the form of beta release 1. For those of you that don’t know, Sunbelt Message Ninja is the version 2.0 release of iHateSpam Server Edition, an anti-spam application for Exchange 2000 and 2003 servers. It started off just being a codename for v2 but as the feature set and functionality grew the product was re-written from the ground up.
The first release of Ninja is anti-spam, anti-virus, and attachment filtering. Because of the extensible architecture we’ll be adding disclaimers, content auditing, content filtering, message forking, advanced message reporting, and archival functions over the course of this year. You’ll end up with a single application to do pretty much everything you need on the Exchange server.
