KeyesMail(tm) - Summary

KeyesMail is a full function automated e-mail package for the System i (i5, iSeries, AS/400). It allows your iSeries applications, 5250 terminals, PC mail clients, or any browser to exchange Internet e-mail, with attachments.

It can be used to automate the distribution of physical files, source files, spooled files, and even save files. Physical files can be translated into .TXT or .CSV files (for importing into Excel). Spooled files can be translated into .TXT, .TIF, .RTF, or .PDF documents. Any type of spooled file including *AFPDS with overlays, *USERASCII from forms design software, and standard *SCS printer files can be processed into an e-mail attachment for easy distribution on the Internet.

KeyesMail can connect to an Internet Service Provider (ISP), using a dial-up, or a network connection (including DSL, ISDN, or Cable connections). It can also exchange e-mail through any network mail server available to your iSeries, including Exchange Servers and Notes/ Domino Servers.

You can retrieve e-mail from more than one mail server or network and can have multiple mail accounts for each connection. Inbound mail is automatically routed to the appropriate mailboxes within KeyesMail, or you can set the system up for automatic creation and sending of outbound mail only.

The software comes complete with a text editor for creating, editing, and viewing e-mail messages on any System i (i5, iSeries, AS/400) terminal. The Message Editor was designed to be a fast and extremely easy to use e-mail editor. It includes automatic word wrapping while you type. It will adjust your paragraphs after you insert, delete, or copy text. It has a spell checker for 7 different languages. It also contains a phonebook for saving and retrieving e-mail addresses and address lists.

KeyesMail is SMTP/MIME and POP3 compliant which allows multiple attachments to be sent and received with your messages. Any System i object can be exchanged with anyone on the Internet, including physical files, source files, spool files, save files, and any PC files located in the Shared Folders.

The recipients of the System i objects can use any kind of computer. They do not have to have a System i and they do not have to have KeyesMail software. The data will be translated between EBCDIC and ASCII, as appropriate.
