NetManage Releases First Intranet Fax Server for PC Desktops; Send, Receive and Manage Faxes Over The Internet.

Inc., the leader in TCP/IP for Windows applications, and Internet productivity software, released today the industry's first Windows-based Fax Server that allows users to send and receive facsimile documents directly from their Windows PC using state-of-the art Internet technology.

Chameleon Fax Server provides users with everything needed to send, receive, route and manage their faxes over the Internet. Chameleon Fax Server is ideal for the office or corporate workgroups standardizing on SMTP mail transport as part of their intranet business solution.

"Chameleon Fax Server dramatically increases user communication options using core Internet technology. Chameleon Fax Server easily integrates into existing SMTP mail/messaging infrastructure and expands the use of the corporate intranet," said Willie Tejada, vice president of product marketing, NetManage.

Send, Receive and Manage Faxes Easily

Chameleon Fax Server seamlessly integrates with NetManage's Chameleon Desktop mail client and runs on Windows and Windows 95 platforms. Chameleon Fax Server eliminates the need for fax machines and allows users to send/receive, view and manage faxes over the Internet.

According to Mason Wright, network administrator for Korg USA Inc., "NetManage's innovative new fax solution integrates nicely with our corporate SMTP mail system, and provides an inexpensive, easy to install and manage, and answers all of our PC desktop fax needs."

The powerful combination of Chameleon Desktop's mail client and the Chameleon Fax Server provides corporations with a complete fax client and server solution.

Chameleon Mail supports MAPI (Messaging Application Programming Interface) and provide users with a point and click solution for sending and receiving MS word or other MAPI-compliant application files. Chameleon Desktop includes the NEWTView application for viewing fax documents. Chameleon Fax Server's DID (Direct Inward Dial) support allows users to automatically receive faxes in their mailbox as a MIME (Multi-purpose Internet mail extension) attachment. Thus, eliminating the task of retrieving faxes from a fax machine.

To expedite the sending of faxes, users can store important fax numbers in the Chameleon Mail Address Book or in the company's ECCO phonebook. Once the user sends a fax the data is stored in the Fax Log by date, time, number dialed, size and length of document. Additionally, inbound faxes are marked by subject and sender and can be stored into folders by defining Chameleon Mail rules.

Chameleon Fax Server provides fax administrators with tools for defining authorized users, configuring fax cards and other customized fax features. Chameleon Fax Server's Coordinator application is ideal for corporations requiring a centralized fax solution. The Coordinator allows fax administrators to view the first page of all faxes and route it to designated recipients.

This special viewing feature provides an extra security feature for securing confidential documents. Chameleon Fax Server supports over 300 Fax cards including Class 1, 2, 2.0, CAS (PureData SatisFAXion) or GPI (GammaLink fax) fax cards and allows administrators to streamline product into the network quickly.
