AXIGEN and MailArchiva Team to Offer High End Messaging and Archiving Solution

Houston, USA, and Bucharest, Romania, April 21st, 2008 – AXIGEN, the professional messaging solution vendor, and Stimulus Software (https://www.mailarchiva.com), vendor of the MailArchiva email archiving system, announced today the closure of a partnership aimed at integrating email messaging and archiving functionalities. Through this strategic technology integration, the two companies aim to pro-actively address the issues arising for businesses of all sizes that work towards complying with IT Governance standards and concepts.

The joint AXIGEN Mail Server – MailArchiva solution will provide all functionalities of a complete email messaging and archiving solution. It features reliability and security in both messaging and archiving activities, quick access to information based on advanced search criteria, a smart storage system preventing overhead and compliance with highly debated international standards such as the Sarbanes Oxley act (SOX), Gramm-Leach Bliley act (GLBA) and the Freedom of Information act (FOIA).

"We at Stimulus Software are proud to associate ourselves with AXIGEN. The AXIGEN Mail Server is a natural fit with MailArchiva. Recent email archiving legislation has made it a necessity for companies to archive their emails for up to seven years. Our customers are now in a strong position to comply with these mandates and enjoy the benefits of using a highly sophisticated messaging platform in combination with a state-of-the-art email archiving system," stated Jamie Band, CEO Stimulus Software, developer of MailArchiva.

"We are very happy to be able to offer more complex messaging solutions through our technological partnership with Stimulus Software. We are confident that both AXIGEN Mail Server and MailArchiva customers will benefit from this alliance, as complying with local legislation and standards governing both messaging and archiving translates into increased credibility as a business partner," said Oana Bornaz, AXIGEN CEO.
