TITLE IBM ULTIMEDIA MAIL/2 KIT FOR TCP/IP VERSION 2.0 FOR OS/2 AVAILABILITY
ABSTRACT The Ultimedia (R) Mail/2 (UltiMail) Kit for TCP/IP Version 2.0
for OS/2 (R) is IBM's new standards-based OS/2 multimedia electronic
mail product for TCP/IP networks, including Internet.
UltiMail is an OS/2-based multimedia authoring, sending and
receiving electronic mail system that includes audio, images, video
and binary attachments for TCP/IP networks.
With UltiMail users can create, receive, send and experience a
wide variety of media types that can be enclosed in a message. These
include:
o Text
o Enriched text (bold, underline, italics, others)
o Images (OS/2-BMP, GIF)
o Audio (Wave, MIDI)
o Simple video clips (TV commercial length)
o Binary attachments (programs, spreadsheets, word processor
documents, other files)
UltiMail can be used to author and transmit complex multimedia
messages in conformance with the Multipurpose Internet Mail
Extensions (MIME) -- RFC 1521 protocols to assure interoperability
with other MIME and non-MIME products.
As an example, the TCP/IP Version 2.0 Base Kit provides basic
electronic mail capability in the Sendmail and LaMAIL functions.
UltiMail can exchange text mail with these functions or with any
standard implementation of TCP/IP electronic mail.
The Ultimedia Mail/2 Kit was previously announced in Software
Announcement 293-410 as the MultiMail Kit and was renamed in Software
Announcement 293-689.
Planned Availability Date: March 25, 1994
