From the supplier: Oregon State University's College of Business is boosting its productivity and communications flexibility with an electronic mail system. The school combined its operations and student microcomputer lab on a 250-node local area network running Novell Inc's NetWare servers linked by an Ethernet backbone. Due to its flexible and user-friendly interface, Consumers Software Inc's Network Courier electronic mail system was selected. The boost in productivity has been significant, with 99 percent of internal communications now being handled online. In 1990, with the system in place, it was expanded first with the Network Courier Gateway package, which provides access to the Simple Message Transfer Protocol, a universal electronic mail standard, and with the Gateway to Fax package later that same year.
