Since 2014 {{ill|Netmail EMEA|de}} uses the brand name to deliver software solution. Netmail EMEA is as a formally subsidiary from Messaging Architects (called later Netmail/NetGovern) and now part of Ipro Tech.

==Positioning==
NetMail is not designed as a group collaboration software, such as [[Novell GroupWise]], [[IBM Lotus Notes]] / [[IBM Lotus Domino|Domino]], or [[Microsoft Exchange Server]]. It is not positioned to compete with those products.

==Design==
M+NetMail is designed around open standards, including [[Lightweight Directory Access Protocol|LDAP]], [[PKCS]], [[iCalendar|iCal]], [[Post Office Protocol|POP3]], [[Internet Message Access Protocol|IMAP4]], [[Transport Layer Security|SSL]], and [[S/MIME]]. Because it is standards-based, there is no "native" client. It instead works with any standards-based IMAP4, POP3 or iCal client. The web interface is likewise usable by most web browsers.

==Platforms==
M+NetMail's server components run atop a variety of platforms, letting the NetMail customer choose the platform most appropriate to their environment. In contrast, some competing products attempt to lock their customers into a single platform. NetMail components are available for [[SUSE Linux|SUSE]] and [[Red Hat]] [[Linux]], [[Novell NetWare]] v5.1 and later, [[Novell Open Enterprise Server]] (in both its OES-Linux and OES-NetWare versions), and [[Microsoft Windows]] platforms.
