Scrollout F1
What it is
Scrollout F1 is a free email gateway that adds anti-spam and anti-virus protection to existing mail servers. It is listed for Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Domino, Postfix, Exim, and Qmail, and one installation can cover unlimited domain names and email servers. Mail controls include DKIM signing and verification, SPF verification with SRS for forwarding, DMARC support, and recipient checks through Active Directory or LDAP.
Filtering targets executable files, malicious content, scripts, forged domains, and invalid or unknown hosts. Routing options include smarthost relaying, per-domain outbound IP pools, backup delivery, and fallback servers. It supports separate quarantines, per-domain spam scoring, TLS 1.2, and an option to require encrypted connections. Deployment options include Hyper-V, VMware, VirtualBox, KVM, XEN, and bare metal; OpenVZ is unsupported. Installation uses a 64-bit ISO or install-from-scratch option, both requiring internet access. The maker describes it for Linux and Windows administrators without advanced email security experience.
