Kingston-upon-Hull, United Kingdom (July 05, 2010) - MessageStream, the leading provider of hosted email anti-spam services in the UK, has cemented a partnership with Kingston Communications (KC) to help deliver powerful email and spam filter services to its clients.

Powered by MessageStream's gold award-winning email filtering service, KC Email Protect will help businesses ward off unwanted spam emails and keep potential viruses and email attacks at bay, and will fit in alongside other existing branded products currently available from KC. Tests conducted by respected international body, VirusBulletin, repeatedly shows that MessageStream delivers a 99.5% successful spam capture rate with less that 0.5% of false positives.

MessageStream email archiving features have also been incorporated into KC's new service, which provides email continuity and secure message archiving. Named KC Email Protect & Archive, users will have the power to keep business emails in secure off-site storage facilities on a long-term basis.

KC is offering this new service to customers on a 14-months-for-the-price-of-12 basis as a special introductory offer. The offer also coincides with the launch of a new Government initiative to tackle online fraud, dubbed the 'Cyber Enforcement Team', as part of a £4.3m investment by the Government over three years to tackle internet and e-mail cons.

Nick Marshall, Director of Giacom World Networks Ltd said: "An estimated £3.5billion is lost to all types of scams in the United Kingdom each year. The partnership between KC and MessageStream means that local companies in Hull and East Yorkshire can focus on the growth of their business, knowing that they are nearly 100% protected from unwanted emails, spam and viruses."

KC Director of Business Services, Mark Conway said: "Our customers trust us as communication experts to provide them with products and services that improve, enhance and protect their businesses. We are delighted to be working with MessageStream to offer a world class service to businesses in Hull and East Yorkshire."
