About the components of NoSpamProxy

Intranet Role

The Intranet Role contains the entire configuration of NoSpamProxy and manages the cryptographic keys. This role also synchronizes user data from the Active Directory or another directory service, such as Lotus Domino. The Intranet Role is installed only once. As the name suggests, the Intranet Role is typically installed on the Intranet of your company. See Establishing the connection to the Intranet Role.

Gateway Role

The Gateway Role is the actual core of NoSpamProxy. NoSpamProxy accepts the emails on port 25, checks them for spam and rejects them if necessary. NoSpamProxy Encryption checks emails to local recipients for valid signatures and decrypts them. Emails to external recipients are signed and encrypted, depending on the configuration. It also provides an interface to De-Mail, Deutschland-Online-Infrastruktur and POP3 mailboxes. See Gateway Role.

Web Portal

The Web Portal allows users to store passwords for PDF mail and to write replies to PDF mails. See Web Portal, Notes on the installation of the Web Portal.

NoSpamProxy Command Center

The NoSpamProxy Command Center is the user interface of NoSpamProxy. The NCC is used for the central management and administration of NoSpamProxy. See NoSpamProxy Command Center.

NoSpamProxy Web App

During setup, the NoSpamProxy Web App is installed as part of the Intranet Role. The Web App offers further functions via a web-based interface, such as additional search options for message tracking. See Message tracking (Web App).
