This article provides an overview of the minimum requirements that must be met in order to run NoSpamProxy.

Note: In order for you to receive support services,

  • the listed requirements must be fulfilled and
  • a corresponding manufacturer support contract must be in effect.

We do not guarantee the completeness of the following information on third-party products. In any case, make sure to check the manufacturer’s pages for updates!

General requirements

  • A corporate email server, either in the company network or in the cloud.
  • NoSpamProxy can NOT be operated using the combination “Domain Controller + Exchange + NoSpamProxy” on one single system, because the operation of Exchange on a domain controller is prohibited. See Exchange Server Supportability Matrix.
  • NoSpamProxy can be installed on a system in parallel with the email server. However, this combination is not recommended, because of duplicate port assignments (mostly ports 25, 443 and 6060/6061), which can cause problems during operation. We recommend to always change the ports of the email server in case of parallel operation, so that NoSpamProxy can be reached from outside via the standard ports.

NoSpamProxy uses the following standard ports:

  • Port 6060/6061 TCP
    • internal communication between the Intranet Role and the Gateway Roles
  • Port 25 TCP
    • SMTP
    • inbound and outbound
    • modifyable
    • also used by Exchange during parallel operation
  • Port 443 TCP
    • SSL
    • internal and external communication with the Web Portal
    • modifyable
  • Port 465 TCP
    • POP3
    • to retrieve POP3 messages
    • no support for NoSpamProxy Protection

Hardware requirements

The following specifications are minimum requirements. The recommended configuration depends on the email volume and the use of individual NoSpamProxy functions.

  • 4GB RAM
  • 2 processor cores
    • virtualized or physical
  • Hard disk space
    • should be discussed individually with the support or presales team
    • If Intranet and Gateway Role are operated on one single system with no Web Portal present, 100GB should be sufficient.

Further notes

  • Make sure that any third-party applications you use that connect to NoSpamProxy are covered by their respective manufacturer’s support. If this is not the case, the NoSpamProxy support team will not be able to provide support.
  • Make sure that the necessary exceptions are set in the local Windows Defender (and other AV scanners used) to allow NoSpamProxy to run smoothly.
  • If you have installed NoSpamProxy and Microsoft Exchange on the same server, make sure that the respective version of the framework is supported by Exchange before installing or updating the Microsoft .NET framework. An overview of supported versions is provided in the Exchange Server Supportability Matrix.
