Looks like Google has added the availability of enhanced email services based on Postini. Here’s what Ed Domains can add with this service:
- Email content policies for sensitive or confidential information
- Email attachment policies to quarantine or block specific file types
- Email footers for all outbound messages
- Encryption using standard TLS protocols
- Additional layer of spam and virus protection
- User account synchronization with Google Apps Premier Edition
Email Archiving is also included. Since we had our Google Apps domains set up before April 22, 2009, activation includes 90-day message archiving, along with the rest of the above listed services,for free.
For an additional cost, K-12 institutions can upgrade their service to Google Message Discovery, which provides an archive of all messages for your domain. Educational institutions will receive a 66% discount. See Postini Services for Google Apps for more information and pricing.
