TFS GATEWAY

TFS Gateway is the name of the service we offer and the product is part of the service. The company was founded in 2020. The product TFS Gateway, however, was launched in 1993. The abbreviation TFS stands for Transfer File System because of its architecture. In 1993, a "leased line" was not common so most communications happened through dial-up modems. The concept of store (file) and forward (transfer) was the best approach and what Internet at the time was based upon, especially for email communication. Still today, an email bounces off of multiple servers before it reaches the recipient, but primarily for security reasons. At the beginning, it was filed and transferred primarily because the recipient's mail server was not always available for the sender's mail server... Besides forwarding email, converting different character sets, being first with using MIME as well as virus scanning attachments and driving the use of UTF-8, we also helped organizations synchronize directories..
