Feature request/suggestion: Comodo ASG lacks proper Office 365 support, at least as far as outbound archiving is concerned. All of the major competitors in this space offer outbound mail archiving for O365, so I’d like to see the ASG dev team make this a priority because more and more customers are migrating out of hosted exchange into O365.
After some back and forth support apparently the issue is that O365 doesn’t support any way for their connectors to authenticate “the whole domain” when setting up outbound connectors, it can only be authenticated by IP address which isn’t ideal and probably not reliable since they have a large cluster of servers that likely changes/grows regularly.
Mailpiler (an open source mail archival system) supports using an archival email address to forward copies of all outbound email to (which works with O365) — perhaps support for this style could be written into ASG. The flow would work something like:
CASG sets up a unique email address for outbound archiving for each domain it services, something like domain-name-biglongkey@archive.spamgateway.comodo.com - the idea of the biglongkey is to prevent spammers from sending junk into your archive, domain name in the email address is so CASG can sort it to your appropriate customer’s archive.
CASG receives emails from O365 or other copy source, and based on the “from” address sorts it into the appropriate user’s archive.
In theory this should be fairly simple.
Thoughts?
