Goodmail Systems, yesterday announced plans to deploy its Goodmail CertifiedEmail service with America Online and Yahoo!.

The company says that its Goodmail CertifiedEmail service will provide a safe and reliable class of email that will help shield AOL & Yahoo! Mail users from spam, fraud and identity theft. CertifiedEmail messages will be marked with a trust symbol in the inboxes of AOL and Yahoo! customers. The CertifiedEmail symbol assures the message is safe and is from an accredited sender -- not from someone faking the email address and domain. The Goodmail service consists of sender accreditation, message certification with cryptographically-secure tokens, inbox labeling, CertifiedUnsubscribe, feedback, reputation monitoring and enforcement.

"We are very pleased to work in partnership with AOL and Yahoo! as they become the first online services to offer this powerful capability, extending their leadership in providing the best possible email experience for their customers," said Richard Gingras, Chairman and CEO of Goodmail Systems.
