Dear AXIGEN Friend,
We are happy to announce that we have released the commercial version of AXIGEN Mail Server 7.2. Featuring the eagerly awaited new Ajax Webmail interface, this fresh release provides users with a desktop-like experience right from their Internet browser and Service Providers with new revenue opportunities.
Technology Preview - Check out AXIGEN's Ajax WebMail Interface
-- In addition to an optimized look-and-feel, the new 7.2 Ajax WebMail interface comes with advanced usability and manageability options. User-centric features such as keyboard navigation and shortcuts, drag-and-drop, live email list view and frequent folders render email related tasks more effective and pain-free, by allowing users to rely on shortcuts and time saving tricks they have already learned while using classic desktop email clients such as Outlook or Thunderbird.
-- For Service Providers, this innovative WebMail technology brings a series of features aimed to help them create new services and generate additional streams of income. AXIGEN v7.2 offers multiple and customizable advertising capabilities, also allowing the integration with third-party ad servers.
The new, Ajax-powered WebMail can be used in parallel with the standard, localized WebMail interface, users being able to freely switch between interfaces from their login panel.
To learn more about the features and enhancements brought by AXIGEN v7.2, please see the list below.
As always, you can begin the upgrade to the new 7.2 release of AXIGEN Mail Server and Outlook Connector by simply visiting the Downloads Area on our website and selecting the desired product kits.
Should you like further details on our new AXIGEN 7.2 version, the features and benefits that it brings, or should you be interested in other types of license upgrades or renewals, please feel free to contact our Sales Team at: sales@axigen.com

- AXIGEN Mail Server 7.2

==========

FILTERS:
- SMTP-filters "RFCBreak" variable controlled from the WebAdmin wizard.

WEBMAIL:
- Advertising from WebMail.
-- New attributes for enabling and controlling the advertising displayed in the WebMail interface.
