Google now is any tier one communications service provider's biggest fear, stated or unstated, and it mostly is stated. So Google's acquisition of Postini won't help clam any such fears. Google gains instant access to Postini’s client base of more than 35,000 businesses including many large businesses.
Postini will help Google further refine its "software as a service" architecture for critical business applications, moving Google further into the business services and software space.
Postini has offered managed email security services to corporate customers since 1999.
