MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., October 31, 2007 - Goodmail Systems, creator of CertifiedEmail™, the industry’s standard class of trusted email, today announced the hiring of Charles Stiles as the company’s vice president of worldwide business development. Stiles, the former Postmaster at AOL, will lead the company’s global ISP policy on behalf of CertifiedEmail senders and will oversee deployment of Goodmail’s new CertifiedEmail-based Applications Platform.

“Having managed one of the world’s largest email domains, Charles understands what it means to provide for a safe online consumer email experience,” said Daniel Dreymann, CEO and co-founder of Goodmail Systems. “He is very well positioned to lead the expansion of CertifiedEmail’s network of ISP and mailbox provider partners worldwide.”

Now supported by seven of the top ten North American mailbox providers, CertifiedEmail provides a safe and reliable means for consumers to easily identify authentic messages from legitimate commercial and nonprofit senders. Available to commercial, government, and nonprofit senders with the lowest complaint rates, CertifiedEmail messages are delivered straight to the inbox past content and volume filters with all links and images rendered on default, and displayed with a blue trust seal in the email interface.

“Charles has unique expertise in the delivery of legitimate email messages into the world’s largest ISPs, and is widely respected within the sender community,” said David Atlas, svp of worldwide sales and marketing. “Managing our ISP partners worldwide, Charles will spearhead deployment of our next generation CertifiedEmail-based Applications Platform, enabling whole new classes of deliverability-based applications for legitimate senders.”

During his ten years at AOL, Stiles focused on improving the customer experience through a better use of technology in Member Services, the AOL Network Operation Center and, most recently, as Postmaster for one of the largest email systems in the world. He is a frequent speaker at industry conferences, and has worked with senders, other ISPs and the press in generating a better understanding of the email environment and potential solutions to enhance the overall consumer experience.

“When Goodmail Systems first launched CertifiedEmail, they unveiled a vision of a reliable, safe class of email that consumers could trust while insuring a means for senders to have their legitimate email be delivered and rendered intact,” said Stiles. “CertifiedEmail is really a platform that normalizes delivery of legitimate email messages among multiple senders and multiple ISPs. This platform is just the beginning for entirely new classes of email that will be built atop the CertifiedEmail platform, and I am delighted to be able to lead this effort with Goodmail’s current and forthcoming mailbox provider partners.”
