OmniTI is in the process of renaming itself to Message Systems. The company makes specialized, high-end SMTP MTAs. Mainly these are sold to ISPs and email marketers.
The firm has a nice, specialized niche. Founded in 1997, it's self-funded, and has always been profitable. There is a staff of 30.
The main selling points for ISPs are:

- Extensibility (e.g., LDAP integration; custom blacklists and whitelists)
- Traffic shaping
The main selling points for email marketers (mainly ESPs and large portals, plus some corporates) are:
