What is Email Gateway?
The Email Gateway allows an organization to communicate outside of the PreVeil platform in a seamless experience for outside parties. With the Email Gateway, users within a PreVeil organization will be able to exchange email with recipients with a non-PreVeil address.
Why consider Email Gateway? (Note: Considering this as the question header instead of: What problem does Email Gateway solve? I want to avoid the word “problem” as that might give a bad connotation.)
PreVeil operates on a closed network, meaning that with your PreVeil account you are communicating only with other PreVeil users.
You may need to communicate with external parties that are prevented from creating a PreVeil account.
The Email Gateway will allow you to use your PreVeil Mail to communicate with these external parties.
...
A user will send an email from the PreVeil account, that email will be encrypted by PreVeil until it arrives at the Email Gateway server.
At the Email Gateway server, the PreVeil encryption will be removed by way of a Mail Transfer Agent (MTA), and will be replaced with an ECA certificate based TLS encryption.
That email will then make it’s way to the external party’s mail servers, and then on to the inbox of their email client.
Note: I think either of these diagrams might be good here, note sure we need both?
