FIELD-REPORT · OP-318
Moved 14 MTAs off a vendor in a weekend. Throughput went from 60k/min to 142k/min with the same iron. Suppression engine alone justified the license.

FIELD-REPORT · OP-411
The verdict-aware routing caught a 9% VPN cohort we'd been silently sending to for months. Bounce rate dropped, sponsor revenue ticked up the next day.

I run my own iron because I don't want a vendor sniffing my list. ZetaRelay is the first self-hosted product that didn't make me regret it. Console is fast.

// OPERATOR Q&A

Things operators ask the bridge.

SECT · 06 / 06
Q·01Is ZetaRelay actually self-hosted, or just on-prem-flavored SaaS?+
Fully self-hosted. The binary runs on your iron. Outbound egress is operator-controlled. We never see your list, your subjects, your sponsor IDs, or your revenue. License check is an air-gappable offline-signed token good for 90 days; renew over a single short HTTP call when you're ready.
Q·02What PMTA versions are supported?+
PowerMTA 4.5r6 and up. We also have native adapters for Postfix & Haraka if you want to mix. ZetaRelay talks to MTAs over their respective management APIs and tails accounting files for per-vMTA throughput.
Q·03How fast can the suppression engine actually go?+
Suppression check is bloom-filtered with a backing RocksDB store. We've benchmarked sub-millisecond lookups at 200k/min sustained. Auto-suppress fires on optout, hard-bounce, complaint, abuse-report — and propagates global vs. per-list vs. per-sponsor based on your policy.
Q·04Do you support one-click unsubscribe (RFC 8058)?+
Yes. List-Unsubscribe and List-Unsubscribe-Post: List-Unsubscribe=One-Click are emitted by default. ZetaRelay ships a compliant landing surface (matched to your tracking domain) that processes one-click POST without form display, per RFC.
Q·05Which sponsor networks are integrated?+
Everflow, HasOffers (TUNE), Cake, Affise, Trackier, ClickFlare, Voluum, RedTrack, Binom, AdsBridge, FunnelFlux, ThriveTracker, BeMob, and a generic S2S adapter for anything else.
Q·06How is compliance handled — CAN-SPAM, GDPR, CASL?+
Every drop carries operator-defined footer macros: physical mailing address, unsubscribe link, sender identity. GDPR consent ledger is per-subscriber with import-time provenance. CASL express-consent tagging is supported on import. Audit log is append-only and signed.
Q·07Can we run it air-gapped?+
Yes. License is an offline-signed token. Update channel is an HTTPS pull you can mirror internally. The only outbound traffic ZetaRelay requires is what your MTAs are already making to recipient mail servers.
Q·08What does "white-glove deployment" actually include?+
A dedicated bridge engineer for 14 days: fleet provisioning, IP warm-up plan, suppression seed migration, sponsor wiring, runbook handoff. After 14 days you're on whatever support tier you bought.
