MailerQ 5.9 released

We just released version 5.9 of MailerQ, which introduces a couple of improvements.

IP Range Grouping

By itself, MailerQ automatically organizes domains with matching MX records or with MX records that resolve to the same server. To organize (short-lived) MX records that follow the same pattern, such as Outlook’s *.olc.protection.outlook.com, we have MX Pattern Grouping. However, some (smaller) ISPs may not stick to such a convenient pattern. In this case, it may be possible to organize destinations based on the CIDR block they belong to. For this purpose, we’ve introduced IP Range Grouping. Email Throttling and other rules applied to one IP address in one of these groups will automatically be applied to the other IPs in this group.

HTTP and SOCKS proxy support for External MTA IPs

In December, we released version 5.8 which introduced External MTA IPs for setting up NAT rules. With 5.9, we’ve expanded this feature to also support HTTP and SOCKS proxies.

Besides this, we introduced a couple of other improvements such as a datetime range selector in the log viewer, extracted local and domain properties of the recipient and envelope address in the result objects, and more. The full release notes can be found here.
