Cleanmail is an email security relay from Alinto that filters unwanted and malicious email traffic. Alinto says it eliminates 99,9% of spam messages and email viruses, and protects against phishing, spoofing, scams, malware, and ransomware. Its outbound scanner checks outgoing mail to help prevent server misuse and domain or IP blocklisting. Administrators can manage allowlists and blocklists at domain and individual-user levels. The control panel provides real-time tracking, analytics, log files, and self-service log access using the ELK stack. If a standard messaging service is unavailable, an emergency webmail interface offers another way to access email. Cleanmail can archive non-modifiable copies of incoming and outgoing messages, including attachments, for up to 10 years, subject to business rules and legal requirements. Alinto describes compatibility with professional mail servers and says existing infrastructure need not change. Deployment options include SaaS, cloud, and on-premises arrangements. Pricing is available on request, and support is offered at L2 and L3 during office hours, with service times depending on the subscribed SLA.
