Thanks again, James. Still more news from ICOR -- contract with British School system via M2. News December 20, 10:43 Eastern Time DEC 20, 1998, M2 Communications - London - ISOCOR, a leading Internet messaging and directory software developer, today announced that as part of County Durham Education Authority's four year programme to connect schools and local education authorities to the Community Grid for learning, Derwentside District Council has purchased ISOCOR's high performance, N-PLEXTM Global messaging server software to fulfill its Internet messaging requirements. This initiative forms part of Government plans to set up a National Grid for Learning across the UK using the various networks available such as the World Wide Web. One of the first projects of its type, it will soon be launched by the Prime Minister, Tony Blair. The aim is to provide a focus and agenda for harnessing new technologies to raise educational standards. The plans challenge the Information Technology (IT) industry to put forward proposals of how Community Grids within the National Grid will be deployed to ensure the implementation of Information Communication Technology (ICT) objectives and the equal delivery of key services to schools. Leading IT companies driving the web revolution have pooled together their resources to formulate a strategy and development plan, enabling any Local Education Authority to become the centre of their own Community Grid. Steve Black, Client Manager - Information Services, Derwentside District Council, explains why ISOCOR's N-PLEX Global was their first choice to enable them to work towards being the most technology advanced education authority in the UK: "To link up to the National Grid we needed a server that could meet our criteria for scalability to thousands of mailboxes, platform independence, price performance and vendor support. ISOCOR's N-PLEX Global provided these as well as the ability to deal with a varied mix of clients/users, and provide product functionality and ease of administration. ISOCOR's N-PLEX WebExpress, which provides users with web access to email, is integrated with N-PLEX Global to give a streamlined service with central dministration and control, plus an interface which can be customised according to individual requirements. Also, N-PLEX Global's scalability means we can be adaptable to the increasing demands of our Internet community, as thousands more students enter the system each academic year." David Longley, European General Manager, ISOCOR comments, "ISOCOR is excited about its involvement in such an interesting project at the forefront of educational development. ISOCOR's N-PLEX Global has now clearly established itself as a leading provider for the National Grid for Learning in the education sector. We now hope to provide similar services to other Local Educational Authority projects in the near future." ISOCOR's N-PLEX Global software is a scalable high-end Internet messaging server, capable of handling millions of users. Designed for large organisations and service providers it provides advanced anti-spamming features, password protection for message tracking, and includes a monitoring service for administrators to capture system information. N-PLEX Global features built-in security and a multi-thread architecture that supports standards such as SMTP, POP3, IMAP4, LDAP, and SNMP. rt.freerealtime.com
