Mail Security for Domino 8.0.5 to Support 64 bit Windows and AIX in March 2010

The upcoming release of SMS DOM 8.0.5 will provide native 64 bit support to Lotus Domino 8.5 on Windows and AIX.  It will allow for cross platform replication / management across AIX 5.3/6.1 and Windows 2003/2008 for 32 and 64 bit.

SMS DOM is expected to be the first to support native 64 bit for AIX and the only product to provide mix platform policy management capabilities.

This release is on target for March 2010 GA.

In addition to the current v8.0 feature set, this release adds:

• Native 64 bit support on both Windows and AIX environments optimizes for performance and scalability
• Refined product architecture further improves performance and disk I/O
• Unified virus definitions management and replication across clusters
• Content violation detection inside container files and attachments
• Enhanced logging and error handling
• Content filtering support in Scheduled and On-demand scans
• Custom email disclaimers and signatures

Customers can get a head start to their migration by setting up SMS DOM 8.0 in their test environment with the exact policies they want in place.  They will be able to upgrade that environment to 8.0.5 and replicate those settings to their production servers.

We are now accepting applications for the AIX 64 beta.  Customers interested in participating may be provided the following application link:

The Windows beta will start shortly thereafter.

Linux, Solaris, and iSeries continue to be supported via SMS DOM 3.2.
