SEARCH giant Google has unveiled a new suite of security tools for protecting email from spam and related problems, technology it acquired when it acquired internet firm Postini last year.

The so-called Powered by Postini security products deliver message filtering, encryption and archiving for business, and works with any mail system, including Notes, Exchange, and Novell Groupwise.

Pricing for the Powered by Postini services start at US$3 (A$3.35) per user per year, although a premium service that includes filtering, security and archiving costs US$25 per user per year.
