@tim_g said in question about setting up a new domain controller:
To end this particular discussion...
If you are going to get O365, go for the best price you can get for the actual O365 product, whether it's MS direct, or through an AppRiver reseller.
If you need other services that AppRiver provides anyways, like spam/antivirus protection and/or email archiving... then it makes even more sense.
Make sure you know what you are buying.
If you don't need O365, Zimbra is a wonderful suggestion by Scott. If you don't need email, there are other alternatives for communication linked earlier.
How is O365 with spam filtering? We have Mimecast (as I mentioned before) which provides spam filtering, malicious link and virus detection (active threat protection) among other things. Its been absolutely great at keeping crap from coming in through email -- which is like one of the number one places for threats.
Not bad. Not perfect by any stretch, but it's pretty decent. Not seen any malware get through, but some spam does.
@tim_g said in question about setting up a new domain controller:
You definitely need spam/malware filtering even with O365. Their stuff sucks.
And here we have both sides of the coin - so you flip it and see which you like better.

You don't need that protection if your email has no internet access.
I thought you said it was internal use only? That your main concern is using email when the internet is down.
What??? No, we use email the normal way, with Internet...

Also, did anyone ever figure out if O365 is still $4 per month or if the only option is now the $5 bundle?? I'm talking bare minimum hosted Exchange.

https://products.office.com/en-us/exchange/exchange-onlineYeah I know about that but there was also question weather MS is actually still selling that... Scott linked me to Minion Queen from NTG who quoted me the $5 price because they didnt know about the $4 one..

Well, the link is still there, and when I clicked on it I could fill out my information - though I didn't finish it.

She definitely knows about the $4 price, she sells it all of the time.

I asked her about the $4 price yesterday after she gave me the initial quote and she told me that they removed the $4 option. Then I showed her the link to the MS page offering it for $4 and then she said she was going to reach out to her account manager about it.

It's removed from the partner options, yes. Definitely still exists. MS Account Reps are notoriously bad

The rep is who @Minion-Queen has to talk to to find out why the email option is not showing up in the portal. We don't know if MS has taken this away from partners, MS breaks things so often, there is no way to know what is intentional and what is just broken.

Well, let's hope it's just broken.. but considering that MS doesn't publish it along side O365, I would not be surprised if MS is trying everything they can to kill it as a stand alone option.

Of course, Outlook is a generic email client. It works with any email system. And pretty much any email system offers specific Outlook compatibility for broader features than email. I don't know any commercial email system that is not bidirectionally supported with Outlook - meaning that Outlook doesn't talk its native language and that they don't at least offer the ability to talk Outlook's native language (as if they were Exchange.)

It's removed from the partner options, yes. Definitely still exists. MS Account Reps are notoriously bad
So does that mean that MS Partners now can't help set that up?? And what's this about MS Account reps? Who's the rep here?
The rep is who @Minion-Queen has to talk to to find out why the email option is not showing up in the portal. We don't know if MS has taken this away from partners, MS breaks things so often, there is no way to know what is intentional and what is just broken.
Well, let's hope it's just broken.. but considering that MS doesn't publish it along side O365, I would not be surprised if MS is trying everything they can to kill it as a stand alone option.
Time for more Zimbra!
shakes head
You're users shouldn't notice any difference if they are using Outlook.
They can use Outlook with Zimbra??
Nevermind. I went to their website to check it out.. freaking interesting. The shop is down atm tho.
What shop is down?
