Projects

Here are the stories of some of the projects developed by Coranto.
Yes, stories. Because behind every project there are events, vicissitudes, relations with people, problems to be addressed and resolved.
At the end of a project, nothing is as before: those who took care of the project and those who requested it are changed; all are enriched with experiences and skills.
Relations between people: this is our way to mean projects.

Servermx mail hosting

Servermx.com is a professional mail hosting e-commerce service using OpenCms featuring WebMail, POP, IMAP and SMTP

The idea of such project born from the willing to provide an email hosting service which could overcome limitations present in other providers. This goal is reached by providing features as multidomain management, autonomously management by the user of your mailbox, the availability of SMTP server and last but not least the guarantee about the privacy of the email data.

From a hardware perspective the purpose is to offer a very reliable service: to do this the service uses dedicated servers, with data replication for disaster recovery. The backup server is located in a different position from main server.

From a software perspective the project employes only open source products such as Debian Linux, Exim (SMTP server), Dovecot (POP IMAP Server), MySQL (Database server), Apache, Tomcat and OpenCms.
