MailRoute is built to filter every mailbox in an organization. Immune is built for the few addresses you publish to the world, with verification instead of another content score.
About MailRoute
MailRoute is a hosted email security gateway billed per mailbox. Aliases and distribution lists are free add-ons on those seats.
| Capability | Immune | MailRoute |
|---|---|---|
| Primary job | Verify first-contact senders on high-exposure addresses | Spam and virus filtering per mailbox |
| Billing unit | Protected inboxes and monthly volume | Per user/mailbox (aliases free) |
| Public inbox model | Designed for support@, contact@, partnerships@ | Treats shared aliases like attachments to a real seat |
| Challenge / CAPTCHA | Core product | Not the model (filter and quarantine) |
| Helpdesk destinations | Native routing per inbox | Delivers into your mail stack, then you forward elsewhere |
