"It was that focus, Peddemors says, that led to the development of LinuxMagic's e-mail server, MagicMail. "Our niche market tended to be helping people with problems surrounding all of the infrastructures that ISPs run—for instance, their web servers, their mail servers, DNS servers… but the largest amount of problems always seemed to surround e-mail," he says.
"At the time, Peddemors says, there was nothing designed specifically for ISPs. "Most people were still running either homegrown open source solutions, or they were trying to take a product that was built for the enterprise and get it to scale to ISP levels…so we rolled up all the stuff we'd been working on with some of our early ISP adopters, and tried to create the perfect turnkey made-by-ISP-for-ISP mail server," he says."
