To all the users of cc:Mail, the bad news: the touch of Lotus is now making itself felt. We have been running cc:Mail on our Novell LAN here for a while. Recently, we hit the user limit on the base package, and the other administrator ordered the 100-user upgrade. It, or rather something, came in yesterday. The price hasn't changed. It's now 25 more users instead of 100 more. (Effectively 4x cost/user.) It's the wrong version--it won't work with our installed package. He's looking at Pegasus mail right now, which I'd suggested a couple of months ago. The times, they are a-changing.... (I understand Microsoft has done basically the same thing with the email outfit they bought; price increases of 790% on some combinations of the package. Gaahhhh...) -- Gary Heston System Mismanager and technoflunky uunet!sci34hub!gary or My opinions, not theirs. SCI Systems, Inc. gary@sci34hub.sci.com Become a pheresis donor.
