"Mail Attender is a great product. It has helped us reduce drive space on our email server and has allowed us to eliminate attachments that are non-business related. "
Sharon M. Albright,
Eckert Seamans Cherin & Mellott LLC

"Mail Attender has helped extend the life of our Exchange 5.5 server."
Christopher Frigon, 
The Oppenheimer Group

"From day one, everything has been easy. Continue to listen to our suggestions and keep the support group at the top of their game. They have been one of the best support groups I've dealt with, much better than Lotus support. Mail Attender has been a big plus to us on the Notes Administration side of side of things. Great product."
Bob Zale
Arthur J. Gallagher & Co.

"Mail Attender is a fantastic utility at the right price. We are very happy that some of the features we have asked for have shown up in subsequent releases."
William Hayward
Hayward Consulting

"Excellent product that is saving us a lot of money. At Invacare, we're able to keep the size of our mail files flat by purging as much information as we accumulate in a given month. In fact, we haven't added disk space to our mail server since the purchase of Mail Attender two years ago. And with the flexibility of setting up different mail restrictions for different types of folders, we never have any complaints."
Marc Creemers,
Invacare Corporation
