E-Mail Cleaning - Architecture
MX Messages Flow
- Messages addressed to the Client MX are redirect to the Tiscali Services Datacenter (Tiscali Services MX record is the same as that of Client MX).
- Brightmail Appliance receives the messages and reduces incoming unsolicited, unwanted email
- RBL filtering (if required) applies black listing filters
- MX mail routes messages to the Brightmail server
Brightmail Server Process
- Talk to BLOC (Brightmail Logistics and Operations Center)
- Queue virus collection
- Send back cleaned messages to MX Mail
- MX Mail delivers messages through the Internet to the Client SMTP MX
- The Client SMTP MX delivers messages to end user mail boxes
