What is PES?
PES stands for Personal Email Solution. It is the computer program
that actually delivers each piece of incoming email to your mailbox
on Worldindia.You can optionally provide a list of rules that tell
PES how to process each message. These rules can delete certain
messages (useful for filtering out junk mail), forward or copy them
to another address, save them to files, generate an automatic reply
(auto responders), send them to your FAX machine or pager, and much
more.PES is available for use by any Worldindia.com customer at
no extra charge. It is not available with any other ISP.
How does it work?
When a new email message arrives on Worldindia.com's mail server,
PES looks for a file in your account called "mailrule". If this
file does not exist, then it simply appends the message to your
mailbox and it is done. If the "mailrule" file does exist then the
message is compared against each rule in the file until a matching
rule is found and the requested action is taken. If no matching
rules are found, the message is appended to your mailbox. PES is
also responsible for limiting the size of your mailbox. If new mail
arrives and your mailbox is already larger than your quota, a note
is sent back to the sender asking them to try sending it again later.
The default quota is 5 megabytes but you can adjust this.
PES runs on our mail server, before the mail gets to your mailbox.
This means you can take advantage of it regardless of your preferred
email software
