Email servers · PROFAIT services
An on-premises email server configured for your business needs.
We can install and configure an email server on your company infrastructure, hosting mailboxes and service management on-site instead of using an external mailbox provider. We carefully assess availability, security and maintenance requirements.
An on-premises server reduces reliance on an external email provider. Communication with other domains still requires your own domain, correct DNS records, an internet connection and a suitable IP address. Message delivery also depends on IP reputation and anti-spam configuration.
01
Server planning
Before installation, we define the number of users, message volume, retention, storage and access requirements.
- Physical or virtual server requirements
- Sizing estimates for users and mailboxes
- Planning storage, backups and recovery
02
Email service configuration
We install and configure email service components, domains and user mailboxes.
- Domains, mailboxes, aliases and lists as needed
- Access through email clients and mobile devices
- Certificates and secure connections where supported
03
DNS and message delivery
We configure domain records required for sending and receiving email, and check settings that help authenticate messages.
- MX and SPF records
- DKIM and DMARC where supported
- Reverse DNS and connectivity checks where possible
04
Security and anti-spam protection
We apply suitable access and filtering settings, then explain the maintenance required for an internet-facing service.
- Mailbox authentication and access control
- Spam filtering and protection from malicious messages
- Regular updates and configuration reviews
05
Migration and continuity
If you already have an email system, we plan message transfer and client setup to minimise disruption as far as the existing environment allows.
- Inventorying accounts and data to migrate
- Mailbox migration and synchronisation plan
- Checking sending, receiving and access after migration
06
Backups and management
We configure backups and service management, including checks that recovery is possible.
