Special Promotional Price for Upgrading to Seattle Lab SLmail for NT

Bothell, WA -- Following Microsoft's recent push of Windows NT 4.0 over Windows 98, Seattle Lab announces a special July promotional price encouraging customers to upgrade to the Windows NT version of SLmail, the award-winning email server program.

SLmail version 3.0 provides post office functions for every POP3 email and Internet mail client, and comes with powerful tools to set up an email server and start sending email in minutes. SLmail is a sophisticated server designed around Microsoft's Component Object Model (COM) architecture of Windows NT 5.0 -- but available now and full-featured when running on NT 4.0.

For the rest of July, owners of SLmail 2.6 for Windows 95 can upgrade to version 3.0 for NT for $149, a 45 percent discount from the standard upgrade price. Seattle Lab does not have a version release planned for Windows 98, based upon Microsoft's support of NT over Windows 98.

"Since Microsoft is emphasizing Windows NT as the recommended upgrade path instead of Windows 98 for business customers, we're ready. SLmail is designed for both NT 4.0 and NT 5.0," said Derek Smith, vice president of research and development. "NT is much more robust and provides support that enhances SLmail's capabilities such as allowing virtually unlimited numbers of users."

Through open APIs, SLmail 3.0 allows system administrators to easily take command of incoming mail to build interfaces to proprietary email systems, pagers, or universal messaging systems. SLmail 3.0's content filters allow complete control of incoming email -- for example, special notification and handling on incoming mail containing any words specified. The filters are easily added and modified.

The advanced architecture of SLmail enables it to outperform any email server in the world. Already considered one of the fastest email servers on the market, the new version receives SMTP four to eight times faster than the previous version of SLmail, rendering it the fastest NT-based email server.

The industry leader, Seattle Lab's SLmail comes with features that reduce junk email and expand anti-spam protection even further, by providing support for enhanced wild-carding on spam domain specifications.

SLmail supports unlimited users, unlimited list servers, the ability to respond automatically to incoming mail, email aliases, message forwarding, and secondary virtual domains. SLmail can be configured on a user-by-user basis, with easy Windows administrative interfaces and logging. Security features include the ability to work behind gateways and firewalls.

A 32-bit service that runs on Windows NT, SLmail was the first email server for Windows. System administrators can completely command their SLmail email server using only a web browser, which means they can access the server from virtually anywhere they can get on the Internet.

The SLmail architecture is the most advanced NT development on the market. The robust, highest-performing architecture uses I/O completion ports and a sophisticated thread-pooling algorithm to ensure that SLmail will outperform and outlast any other email server.

Seattle Lab is a leading developer of connectivity solutions for Windows, including SLmail; SLnet, the Telnet service for Windows NT; SLink, the serial server that turns Windows NT into a software terminal server; Emurl, the web-based email organizer that allows users to access all of their email accounts from anywhere on the Internet with only a web browser; and RemoteNT, the remote administration tool which gives access to any NT system using the Internet.

All Seattle Lab products come with a free two-week trial period; SLmail and the other products may be downloaded from www.seattlelab.com.

Users of SLmail for Windows 95 are encouraged to make July their month to migrate to SLmail 3.0 for Windows NT for only $149. During July, this upgrade is available by calling (949) 428-9330 and requesting the July special.
