Novell NetWare Listserver Keeps Resellers and Users Up-to-Date

Listserver Subscribers Receive E-Mail Updates on NetWare News and Information

What:
Novell has implemented a listserver to electronically disseminate information about NetWare, Novell's industry-leading network operating system (NOS). Novell will collect, condense and deliver the latest NetWare news and information directly to subscribers' desktops by e-mail, free of charge. Listserver content will include news summaries, NetWare press releases, brief white papers, competitive NOS information, Novell's "Week in Review" and "Reality Check" publications as well as other pertinent information to help subscribers make informed business decisions and get the most out of their networks. The listserver information will cover a variety of NetWare-related topics: advances in Internet, intranet and directory services technology, network management issues and other subjects of interest to resellers and customers.

The e-mail messages will be text-based, but formatted documents, such as the "Week in Review" and "Reality Check" items, will occasionally be attached to the messages as Novell Envoy files to enable readers to view the graphical layout. Resellers will be able to print out the formatted attachments to use as marketing pieces. Users can download the Envoy viewer free of charge from the World Wide Web at http://www.novell.com/corp/freesoft/envoy/envoy1a.html [link removed]. By gathering and delivering information directly to customers, partners, resellers and OEMs, Novell will enable them to stay effortlessly up-to-date on the important NetWare news and competitive information they need to run their businesses. In addition, the information will continue to be available on Novell's Web site at http://www.novell.com/intranetware/ [link removed].

When:
The listserver is available now.

Where:
To automatically receive information about NetWare, users simply send an e-mail message to netwarenews@novell.com. The body of the message should read: "Subscribe netwarenews [e-mail address]." The listserver will begin sending NetWare news and information to that e-mail address.
