MxGuard Business is a cloud-delivered, hybrid-AI email security gateway that stops spam, phishing, malware and business-email-compromise before they ever reach your inbox. Point your domain's MX record at MxGuard and every inbound message is scored, sorted and forwarded on to your real mail server — with a single web console to manage everything. £16.99 per domain per month, with 25 mailboxes included. How it works: MxGuard sits in front of your existing mail server. A gradient-boosted machine-learning classifier scores the easy 95% of mail in milliseconds. The borderline messages — the ones that matter most — are handed to Claude, Anthropic's large language model, which reads them the way a person would before a verdict is reached. Every verdict comes with a plain-English reason, so you can always see exactly why a message was tagged, quarantined or rejected. Why old filters fail and MxGuard doesn't: Rule-based and Bayesian filters were built for an era of obvious spam. They miss the carefully written, well-targeted attacks: CEO impersonation, invoice redirection, gift-card fraud, lookalike domains and AI-written phishing with perfect grammar. These payload-free attacks sail past legacy filters — and they are exactly where MxGuard's LLM layer is strongest. What MxGuard stops: - Phishing — credential-harvest pages, fake login flows and OAuth-consent traps. - BEC and impersonation — CEO fraud, invoice redirection, supplier impersonation, gift-card scams. - Malware and ransomware — ClamAV scans every attachment, including archives; macro-bearing Office docs and HTML smuggling scored heavily. - Bulk spam and UCE — classic spam, snowshoe and hailstorm campaigns, with near-zero false positives on legitimate bulk mail. - Lookalike domains — homoglyph attacks, doubled letters and ccTLD swaps, checked at envelope, From header and reply-to. - Backscatter and spoofing — SPF/DKIM/DMARC enforcement plus ARC sealing through forwarding. Included on every domain: - ML-based threat scoring with sub-5ms decisions. - Claude LLM evaluation on uncertain mail, with transparent written verdicts. - Real-time live feed dashboard showing mail as it's processed. - Daily digest emails with one-click release and block actions. - Allow / block rules with hit tracking. - URIBL, Spamhaus and URLhaus threat feeds. - ClamAV attachment scanning. - ARC sealing for forwarded mail. - Self-service domain management — no support tickets needed. - 30-day quarantine retention. - 25 mailboxes included (add packs of 25 for more). - Active-active high availability across two UK gateways (mx1 + mx2). No hardware, no installs, no capital cost: MxGuard runs in our UK-based cloud. There's nothing to deploy on your premises, no agents to install and no firewall rules to add. Most customers are live within a working day. Subscription pricing means no up-front investment and no surprise upgrade costs. UK-hosted and GDPR-aligned: Your mail data is processed and stored in the UK. Month-to-month billing with no minimum contract, no setup fees and no annual lock-in. 10% off on annual prepay. Migrating from eFa? eFa reaches end-of-life in July 2026. MxGuard is a direct replacement that runs in the same MX-fronting role with modern detection. We import your existing allow/block lists and provide guided cutover assistance free of charge — most migrations complete inside two days.
MailProof is a certified email service that gives you legal-grade proof your important messages were sent and delivered. Every email is routed through a certified relay that records the full SMTP handshake with the recipient's mail server — their acceptance and exact timestamps — and turns it into a formal PDF certificate. The Free plan includes 10 certified emails every calendar month at no cost, with the complete feature set, so you can prove delivery whenever a contract, notice or deadline calls for it. Your Free plan includes: - 10 certified emails every calendar month, free — the allowance resets each month - A formal PDF delivery certificate for every confirmed email - Real-time tracking through every stage: submitted, dispatched, delivered, confirmed and opened - Read confirmation — know exactly when your recipient opens the message - Send from your own business email address (recipients see you, not us) - Attachments up to 10MB, with the file names recorded on the certificate - A public verification link so recipients can confirm delivery with no account How it works: Getting certified delivery takes four steps, with no software or plugins to install: - Sign up with the email address you want to send from — no verification delays, ready in seconds. - Compose your message, add any attachments, and send it through the certified relay. - MailProof records the full delivery chain and the recipient server's acceptance, with timestamps. - You receive a PDF certificate — tracking ID, timestamps and full delivery proof — plus a confirmation email with the PDF attached. Recipients can verify it online. What the certificate proves: Each certificate carries a unique certificate ID and tracking code, the sender and recipient details, the subject line, any attachment names, and the complete timestamped delivery timeline — independent evidence that stands up when a dispute, deadline or regulator asks for it. What people use it for: - Contracts and agreements — proof the other party received them - Deadline-sensitive notices — terminations, cancellations and warnings delivered on time - Regulatory compliance — GDPR notifications, financial disclosures and documented communications - Landlord and tenant — rent-increase notices and maintenance or eviction warnings Secure by default: Emails are protected by TLS 1.3 in transit and AES-256-GCM encryption at rest, and message content is only ever accessible to you, the account holder. Need more than 10 a month? Add the 100-email bundle for £45, or pay as you go at £0.50 per certified email.
Transcom Dropcatch is a professional online dropcatching platform for expiring .uk, .co.uk, .org.uk and .me.uk domains registered with Nominet. The Free Access plan lets anyone submit and monitor catches with no upfront fees and no submission limits — you pay only when a domain is successfully caught. Built and operated from Brighton since 1993. Pay only on a catch: There are no submission fees, no listing fees, no minimum quantities and no contract. You submit the domains you want, the system monitors them live, and you're only charged if and when a catch succeeds. Pricing is per successful catch by mode: - Fast — £10 + VAT — quick catches across the standard drop. - Multi — £25 + VAT — unlimited submissions, any quantity, for any domain except high-value premium names. - Single — £50 + VAT — full dedicated resources for premium and hard-to-catch names such as short/3-character domains. How it works: - Simple two-line registration — your username can be anything, but for consistency use your Nominet IPS TAG or Acorn account if you have one. - You don't need to be a Nominet TAG holder to use the service. - Submission is fully automatic — the system inserts the expiry and drop dates and allocates resources, filtering out any domains not in the expired window. - Status updates are live — when a domain is caught, a FastPay link appears next to the result with payment options. - Every result shows which system cluster made the catch (CAUGHT-XX), so you can see the engine behind each win. Precision catching technology: The platform uses real-time Nominet drop monitoring, pre-warmed sockets and NTP-synced precision firing over the EPP/DAC process, run from fast, low-RTT infrastructure close to the Nominet backend. This is the same proven engine that powers Transcom's leased and owned dropcatch products. Caught a domain — then what: - Caught domains appear in your records and in the public Just Caught list (unless you prefer to keep them private). - List caught domains for sale on the integrated auction site with no listing fees. - Leave the domain on Transcom's TAG with renewal at current rates, or transfer it out to your own TAG. - Optional RDHE add-on (£10 + VAT per year) provides Registration, Hosting and Email for new domains — instant DNS, a holding page and catch-all email with webmail, IMAP and SMTP, or forwarding to an existing address. Integrated live auctions: The service includes its own live auction facility — submit and bid on domains of any TLD, with no listing fees and no limit on submissions. Sell your caught domains or pick up others' directly through the platform. For heavier or self-run catching: If you run your own dropcatch setup or own Transcom's software, dedicated multi-core server resources can be allocated for premium, hard-to-catch names. Leased and owned engine options are also available for those who want to catch under their own TAG and settle with Nominet directly at preferential rates. Free to start: no card needed to register and submit. You only ever pay on a successful catch — making it a genuinely no-risk way to chase expiring UK domains.
A DID (Direct Inward Dialling) number is your own inbound phone number that rings straight through to your FreeVoIP account, mobile or PSTN line. Pick a local UK area code to give your business a regional presence, a national number for reach, or a geographic number in dozens of other countries. Calls to your DID are delivered over IP to wherever you want them — a softphone, a desk phone, your PBX or your mobile — so you can take business calls anywhere without giving out a personal number. What is included: - Choice of UK local, national and international geographic numbers - Instant routing to VoIP, mobile or landline - Voicemail-to-email so you never miss a call - Simultaneous or failover routing to multiple destinations - Full ownership — keep the number for life and port it away anytime How it works: Order the number, choose where it should ring, and it is live in minutes. Point it at a single handset or fan it out across a team, and combine it with call routing, IVR and time-of-day rules for a complete inbound setup. Great with a VoIP account: Pair a DID with a free FreeVoIP SIP account for a complete two-way phone service — free VoIP-to-VoIP calling and low-cost outbound, plus a proper inbound number your customers can call. Backed by Transcom: Numbers are provisioned on Transcom's UK carrier network, a Nominet-accredited provider supporting British businesses since 1993.
