Anti-spam
Messages sent by spammers contain unwanted information, causing
frustration and wasting valuable time. Mail essentials includes
an advanced anti-spam module that picks up on typical spam
practices, such as incorrect Reply To addresses, From headers
with nonexistent domains, etc. You can also configure lists of
keywords and phrases that identify most spam mails.

Company-wide disclaimer/footer text
Because companies are effectively responsible for the content of
their employees' email messages, it is wise to add a disclaimer
to each outgoing email. This disclaimer/footer text can also be
used to add a standard corporate message to each email, such as
an address or company slogan. Although most employees have their
own personal signature, the disclaimer/footer text ensures that
the corporate message is always communicated. Both text and HTML
format disclaimers are supported. User-based disclaimers and
merge fields will be supported in a service pack to be released
in June 2002.

Personalized server-based auto replies with tracking
number
Auto replies can be more than just an 'out of office' reply.
With server-based, personalized replies, you can let your
customers know that their email has been received and who will
handle their request. GFI Mail essentials assigns a unique
tracking number to each reply to give your customers and
employees an easy point of reference. Because GFI Mail
essentials can also include attachments in the auto replies, you
can use it as an information-on-demand service, returning
documents like price lists and brochures automatically on
request.

to download mail from POP3 mailboxes. GFI Mail essentials
includes a utility that can download mail from POP3 mailboxes.
It supports both single and multiple recipient POP3 accounts: In
single recipient mode, it maps a POP3 mailbox to an Exchange
mailbox. In multiple recipient mode, it analyses the email
header and distributes the mail to the correct Exchange mailbox.
