Two new mxHero plugins, BCC Policy and BCC Usage, allow companies to block and/or monitor emails sent to previously undisclosed recipients. The process can be completely transparent to email users. Companies no longer need to risk damage that can be caused by hidden email communications.

The two plugins offer different strategies for dealing with BCC email. Companies can opt between the two or combine them.

The BCC Policy plugin works by blocking email sent to undeclared BCC recipients. The block can generate a reply message to the sender indicating that the email was blocked because of BCC usage. The plugin will apply to all emails sent regardless of the platform, ex. desktop, web or mobile.

The BCC Usage plugin allows BCC email to be delivered but also creates a silent copy that is sent to a pre-configured audit address. For example, if an internal email is sent to the CEO with an undisclosed copy (BCC) to an external address, a copy of that email can be sent to an audit address.

mxHero is an open source software platform that can be installed with any email system. mxHero extends email’s capabilities through plugins managed by a simple and intuitive interface.
mxHero is being actively developed – the roadmap includes more than 70 functionalities, some unprecedented in email. The current release includes more than 15 plugins with the added benefit of visual reports of effectiveness.

Alexis Panagides, CEO of mxHero:

“Companies have always had to deal with the fact that email allows users to send hidden copies to third parties. More than a security risk, one can question its ethics and potential impact on company morale.”

GoodHumans is pleased to announce today the release of the 1.5.8 version of eMailGanizer, the intelligent email reader for the iPhone. This update adds support for Hotmail users. Now, people with Hotmail accounts can quickly file emails into their Hotmail folders directly from their iPhones. The Hotmail integration also includes folder management operations, making eMailGanizer the first iPhone App with the ability to manage folders for both Hotmail and IMAP accounts.

Hotmail accounts are added to eMailGanizer by selecting the Windows Live Hotmail choice when presented with the different account types during the account entry process. The user is then asked to provide their Hotmail email address and password. Once the credentials have been verified, eMailGanizer downloads emails and folders from Hotmail and keeps them synchronized with the user’s iPhone. eMailGanizer then uses this information to learn how users like to file the Hotmail emails. This knowledge allows eMailGanizer to present the correct folder for each email while it is being filed.

In addition to email filing, Hotmail and IMAP users can now perform all folder management operations from the iPhone using eMailGanizer. These operations include the addition, deletion, renaming, and reorganization of email folders. Such tasks are accomplished using the ‘+” and ‘Edit’ buttons at the top of eMailGanizer’s ‘Folders’ tab.

Mailcircuit.com today announced it is re-entering the email hosting landscape with the launch of Unlimited Sized mailboxes for all email hosting plans!
