  1. #1 is a neat idea as it's convenient. I think we'll discuss that with engineering.

    #2 is tricky because converting from DOC, DOCX, etc. formats doesn't always render the same when TIFF, and the document must be converted when sent. If we did this, we can't guarantee it would always "look right" which will frustrate people. But we can see.

    #3 We've had a bunch of requests to be able to have a "company wide" fax number, and are investigating that concept.

    #4 Already exists

    #5 You'll be able to customize the domains on the next release.
  2. Hi there,
         A few comments here:

    1) The overall pricing summaries are not yet accurate (as you've noticed). Please ignore them. I will remove them today so they don't confuse you. There is actual supposed to be a "what you bill your clients" and "what we bill you" but it's proving challenging because some customers have varying price plans.

    2) The summaries on the individual accounts are only for RIGHT NOW, when you run the report, but the CDRs are for the month you requested. I realize this is confusing, but the issue is we don't track the summaries month-over-month. We're working on that. We still feel it's useful to know the summaries. I've tried to loudly make that obvious on the report but might just remove it if it causes confusion.

    3) The CDRs are not sorted. We're working on a solution for that.

    The point of releasing the tool in this state was because it has the raw CDRs, which is what most people wanted. There are a BUNCH of additional enhancements planned for this tool, so stay tuned.
  3. Ironically, the current mechanism is to reject the email outright. The error you're receiving is from whomever sends your email to us - they don't even get far enough where we generate a bounce-back.

    In other words, we deny the SMTP connection.

    That, inherently, is the problem. We have no opportunity to customize the message much. We can add about 100 characters of clarifying text which may, or may not, end up in the response that YOUR email provider generates to you. But there's no guarantee you'll see anything.

    We're working on ideas for this.
  4. FYI, we are aware of this and it will improve over time. The main challenge here is unauthorized emails actually might be spam attempting to generate "back scatter". This is a common spam tactic where a spammer intentionally emails a known server that will "bounce" emails, using a forged From: address. This inherently generates a reply to the spammer's target in the form of a bounce.
  5. When the provisioner tool was created, encryption wasn't available in many cases. In addition, adding it can lead to other issues (like people using the same user/pass for all their clients, or not knowing how to configure it, etc.)

    We added some functionality to provisioner which blocks scanning requests and does not allow you to download the config files without knowing a few things about properly crafting a request. So this is not actually as insecure as you're pointing out. It's been pretty solid.

    At this point, you'd basically have to craft a perfect request and know the exact MAC address of the phone you want to grab.

    In the future, we'll be locking this down by IP and providing functionality to deal with dynamic IPs. This should put an end to this, encryption or no encryption.
