Features
Our clients have access to a broad range of email defenses, which can be blended to provide exceptional inbox control. Default and custom configurations simplify deployment, while providing the versatility that is needed to address the widest range of user requirements.
SMTP Enforcement We synchronize with each client domain, protecting your gateway against Directory Harvest Attacks & Denial Of Service Attacks. We conserve your bandwidth.
RCPT-Check When a domain is absent we query the delivery MTA to verify the recipient is legitimate.
Allow Lists (Whitelisting) We can automatically harvest your contacts and addresses from Outlook's Sent Items Folder to create your initial white-list saving valuable time.  Then we can automate your list maintenance by adding new addresses each time a new address is detected outbound.  We can even perform this on each new address detected in a reply.
Block Lists (Blacklisting) The Block List is used to block email from specific addresses or domains. A Block List entry can be created through either the in-message Control Panel or the Message Center user interface. Enterprise-wide entries may be added to the Block List.
Content Filtering Filtering provides simple, transparent set-and-forget protection, although users may choose to inspect their quarantine or receive a daily summary of messages in the quarantine.  We provide a simple means for each client to tailor the sensitivity of the filter for their specific preferences.
Disposable
Addresses
We make it easy for clients to employ multiple addresses for a single inbox. We refer to these addresses as Disposable Addresses, because they provide both a means of protecting the integrity of one's primary email address and of protecting access to one's inbox. We enable clients to spontaneously disclose a purpose-specific address on a Web site, in a discussion forum, in print or conversation, etc., without interacting with the system. These addresses take the form of a root name plus a suffix of the user's own choosing. For example, to register on eBay, Jane Doe might disclose the address jdoe.ebay@herdomain.com, where the ".ebay" suffix serves as an "email PIN" that assures delivery of email sent to this address. Addresses are independently controllable by policy, so that legitimate users of the address can be "locked down" in the event the address is ever harvested and abused by a spammer.
Granular Security States Granular inbox access control flows in part from the range of security states that can be applied to a specific sender and address. For example, if an Address-on-the-Fly starts to attract spam, users can first identify who is sharing their email address, and then exert varying degrees of control over future use of the address – they can (a) block the specific abusing sender, (b) lock down the address, reserving its future use solely for the existing community of legitimate senders, (c) restrict future use to senders at the domain of the sender to which it was initially disclosed, (d) restrict use even further to just the party to which it was initially disclosed, or (e) disable the address, in which case all future incoming mail on the address will be blocked, flagged or challenged. These options are implemented very simply through the User Control Panel.
Control Panel Automatically insert a control panel at the bottom of incoming messages, and remove it on Forward or Reply. This control panel provides a means of communicating with users, for example, to inform them when one correspondent appears to have shared their address with a third party. It also provides a simple means for users to update their access preferences for a specific sender and address, by clicking on the intuitive in-message links that are provided. Reflexion's control panel is available in English, Spanish, French, German, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, Italian and Chinese, with Russian and Hebrew on the way.
Alternate Outbound Addresses Our experience shows that even the use of just two addresses provides significant improvements in inbox control. The increase in effectiveness is based on the simple, but powerful, insight that legitimate senders will never knowingly share your address with spammers. By using an Alternate Outbound Address, conversations started with new correspondents take place on an address to which no spam is sent, so no filtering is required, thus eliminating all chance of false-positives.
Permitted Languages This capability augments traditional content filtering by blocking messages in any language other than those specifically approved for delivery at the enterprise and individual user levels.
Permitted Countries This capability further augments content filtering by blocking messages from any country other than those specifically approved for delivery at the enterprise and individual user levels. Delivery decisions are based on the IP address of the sending server. While some organizations may not be able to use this capability, many domestic businesses may not ever want to receive email that can be determined to have originated outside their home country or geographic area of operation.
Total Control Total Control provides maximum control over access to one's inbox – we believe there is no more powerful solution on the market today. In this mode, we expedite the creation of the user's Allow List, then utilize an automatic challenge-response for every new inbound correspondent, asking the sender to resend their message to a Protective Address with a suffix automatically assigned. By establishing correspondent-specific To – From address pairs, each controllable by policy, we deprive spammers of their primary technique – if they spoof the From address, they must associate it with the proper To address in order to reach the user's inbox, and the chances of this are negligible. Hence the name Total Control.
Anti-Virus We scan both incoming and outgoing email for viruses, worms, and other malware.
Blended Defenses We enable users to mix-and-match various defenses to suit their specific preferences. Our experience shows that blending Protective Addresses with traditional methods produces a stronger defense that also avoids the pitfalls of traditional defenses used independently.
Outbound Mail Auditing We block outbound email that contains spam and viruses, and provide a means of rate-limiting outbound email volumes. We use these features to identify and alert on open relay conditions and potential compromised, "zombie" PCs, in order to prevent our customers from inadvertently spamming their contacts and to avoid IP address blacklisting, with the business disruption that accompanies that unpleasant outcome.
