- Mail reader/composer for Windows
-
-
- What is EZ-Mail?
- ----------------
- EZ-Mail is a mail reader/composer that let you manage Internet mail under
- Windows. The main purpose of EZ-Mail is to let the user read, reply, forward
- and create messages. There are also other functions to simplify the reader's
- task. EZ-Mail is not a mail transport package or a UUCP system, it acts as a
- front end to such package. To send a mail message, EZ-Mail calls a third
- party mailer program that does the transport part of the mailing process.
-
- Current directly supported systems are:
- - UUPC/extended by Drew Derbyshire.
- - FSUUCP by Fubar Systems.
- - PC-NFS from Sun Micro Systems Inc.
- - PC/TCP by FTP Software Inc.
- - Pathway by The Wollongong Group Inc.
-
- EZ-Mail is fully configurable and may well support other systems.
-
- Since EZ-Mail is fully configurable, you may use your PC as a multi-user mail
- system by creating as many users as you wish. See the User setup section for
- more information on multi-users.
-
- EZ-Mail's ancestor is WinMail. WinMail is no longer supported and all users
- of WinMail 1.0 to 1.1a should now use EZ-Mail. See the special offer below
- for registered users of WinMail.

- Testimonials
- ------------
- "EZ-Mail is a classy product, I now live by it. It is fast, easy, efficient,
- reliable, and as far as I am concerned, much better than commercially
- available products. In short, EZ-Mail is excellent and is the most
- profound Windows application to hit my desktop."
