Preview of J Street Mailer Pure Java Email Client with POP3, IMAP4 and LDAP
Shown in Montreal to OS/2 Users Group.
Harrison, NY, April 16, 1998 =96 InnoVal Systems Solutions demonstrated a
preview of the next release of J Street Mailer, its pure Java email client,
to the Montreal OS/2 Users Group last night in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
This next release, which features LDAP and IMAP4 support, will be released
on April 30, 1998.
"The demo was fun," said Dan Porter, the president of InnoVal. "One of the
highlights was showing how LDAP worked. From a message compose window we
connected to a couple of public LDAP servers. For the first one,
"ldap.switchboard.com," we typed in "Trevor Smith" and within seconds we
had a list of twenty-seven different hits. We selected one,
"editor@os2ezine," and clicked the "To" button to address our message. We
could have also added it to one of our own address books. For the second
one, we connected to a university in Great Britain and searched for
students with a last name of "Jones."
Other highlighted features of the demo included the Preview Mail feature by
which users can preview mail on a POP3 or IMAP4 server, handle messages
selectively, and delete obvious spams without downloading; Advanced Filters
with spam filtering, Multiple Personas within a single account (business
and personal); and Virtual Folders. "I am very careful to file messages,"
said Porter, "but I can never remember where I filed them. Being able to
open a virtual folder by clicking on address book entry or by opening a
virtual folder for a given range of dates is a very useful feature."
Following the demonstration, Porter said that InnoVal would soon be
announcing a Total Campus Program or TCP. "This makes good sense since J
Street Mailer runs on so many platforms found on typical college campuses
and in high schools. It runs the same and looks the same using OS/2,
Windows 95, Windows NT, Linux and Macs," said Porter. "By multiplying the
number of students by a low factor such as 65 cents, a school will be able
to obtain a site license that applies to all students, faculty, and staff.
The license allows for on-campus and at-home use and extends to graduating
seniors at no additional charge."
The J Street Mailer is currently available for $49.00. Java Lobby members
may obtain a license for $44.00 and students and faculty of accredited
higher education and secondary schools may obtain J Street Mailer for only
$29.00. Those who order J Street Mailer at this time will receive free
upgrades and maintenance releases for one year. Additional information,
including a comprehensive list of features and a demonstration may be found
at InnoVal's home page at http://www.innoval.com.
