Issue 25: MailHop Backup MX and Relay Support User Lists
March 21, 2008
DynDNS now provides support for User Lists on MailHop Backup MX and MailHop Relay. This addition to MailHop now allows customers to upload a list of usernames for each MailHop domain in service. By using this feature, MailHop customers can better protect themselves from spam and dictionary attacks by ensuring that the MailHop systems reject and discard unwanted mail before it is delivered to the customer’s server. A further benefit is that MailHop will no longer perform call-ahead recipient verification for enabled domains. Doing so will greatly reduce load on MailHop and customer systems, enhancing the speed of mail delivery.
Customers who wish to enable this feature should simply navigate to their domain’s MailHop page, and access the preference link for “User Lists.” As always, DynDNS Support is standing by to answer any questions about this new feature.
