Thank you for taking a look at the Avira Managed Email Security (AMES) manual.

your specific needs. You will have peace in your inbox in no time.
1.1
Functionality
Avira Managed Email Security (AMES) is a service dedicated to stopping spam or
viruses before they reach your company’s network. This is achieved by routing the
emails to our AMES server cluster. AMES then scans and delivers the malware-free
emails to your server.
The most accurate spam scanning technology
For intercepting spam, we use a combination of technologies proven to be
extremely effective. Since spammers and virus makers become more skilled every
day, we constantly test and implement new methods to keep our lead position in
email scanning, and you enjoy the benefits of this without any extra effort.
Configuring AMES
Because we stop spam and viruses "in the cloud", that is also the place where the
configuration is done.
You can log in to the AMES interface at

Licensing AMES
When you let your Avira Partner purchase a license for AMES, you need to choose
the number of users. These users correspond to the total number of people in your
organization, that are going to use AMES to filter emails.
AMES gives you total freedom to distribute these users across multiple domains,
create aliases for them, set filtering rules, etc. but always keep your license up to
date with the actual users. For more information, see the AMES terms and
conditions on our
website
