HP NewWave Office - Information
Distribution Services for the PC, Technical Data
PC integration with HP NewWave Mail and HP AdvanceMail
PC Information Distribution Services
HP NewWave Office software offers organizations unparalleled
flexibility in distributing information. One of the key benefits of
HP NewWave Office is its power to integrate PCs into the corporate
information distribution network. There are two key elements which make
that integration possible - HP NewWave Mail and HP AdvanceMail. These
two software products allow dedicated PC users to communicate
transparently with any other user either on the internal or external
information network.
Choice of PC Client
HP NewWave Office gives you a choice of the type of client you use to
integrate your PC users. You have the option of using the easy-to-use,
graphical interface of HP NewWave or a standard MS-DOS(r) interface.
Whichever client you choose, users get the same high level of
integration to any of the HP NewWave Office servers.
Choice of Server
HP NewWave Office is available for three types of server - an HP 3000
with MPE, an HP 9000 with HP-UX and a 386 or 486 PC server with SCO
UNIX(r). HP AdvanceMail and HP NewWave Mail will connect to each of
these servers and provide PC users with connections to HP's mail
servers, HP OpenMail and HP DeskManager, as well as to others servers
such as IBM's PROFS and DISOSS, servers using X.400, and the fax and
telex networks.
HP NewWave Mail
HP NewWave Mail (version A.03.00) combines the intuitive, easy-to-use
NewWave environment with powerful corporate communications capabilities.
Wherever NewWave users need to communicate with others on the corporate
network, HP NewWave Mail provides a fully integrated, transparent
solution.
HP AdvanceMail
HP AdvanceMail (version A.04.0) is the MS-DOS information distribution
service of HP NewWave Office for HP-UX and MPE. In addition,
HP AdvanceMail now provides PC integration for HP OpenMail for SCO UNIX.
HP AdvanceMail is for environments where the full power of NewWave is
not required - for example for the sale representative using a portable
PC with a standard memory and hardware configuration, HP AdvanceMail
offers a simple, cost-effective solution.
HP NewWave Mail
Benefits of HP NewWave Mail
HP NewWave Mail ensures transparent integration of the NewWave
workstation with the corporate electronic mail network by connecting
either to an HP 3000 or to an HP 9000. Using these powerful servers,
HP NewWave Mail users can send any New Wave object from a simple text
note to a complex compound document.
The close integration of PC and server gives NewWave users the best
of both worlds. They can use the power and ease of the NewWave advanced
graphical interface on the PC, combined with communication and
distribution capacity of HP's mail servers.
Getting the benefits of HP NewWave
HP NewWave is designed to increase user productivity in the office
through a combination of functionality and ease of use. HP NewWave Mail
looks and acts the same as other HP NewWave applications, so the user
will quickly reap NewWave's productivity benefits when communicating
with others.
Task automation
The HP NewWave Agent can record and perform tasks for you at any time.
You can use the agent to automate your mailing tasks - for example to
send and receive messages at specified times of the day.
NewWave and current wave coexist
For customers who already have HP DeskManager or HP AdvanceMail, adding
HP NewWave to your network is simple. HP NewWave Mail, HP DeskManager,
HP OpenMail and HP AdvanceMail users can all exchange information and
built-in browsers and converters allow them to read, print, and even
edit documents received on a terminal or on a PC. You can add NewWave
and HP NewWave Mail to your network without sacrificing your existing
investment in terminals and PCs.
Quick and easy connections
HP NewWave Mail connects users to the server quickly and easily whatever
the connection method. LAN connections are very simple and where serial
connections exist, either direct connections or via modem or X.25,
HP NewWave Mail's built-in data communications software can handle
complex logon procedures without user intervention.
HP NewWave Mail Features
HP NewWave Mail has the full set of mailing functions you expect from a
leading supplier of information distribution software. These features
include automatic background transfer of messages, full distribution
list checking, and new mail notification.
Sending messages
Creating and sending messages is simple. Just dropping an object on the
Out Tray creates a message. HP NewWave Mail prompts you for the names
and then checks them immediately. You can set urgent priority or make
the message private. You can choose to send messages immediately or
later. Mail is always transferred in background so you can continue with
other tasks.
Receiving messages
Messages arrive automatically in background in the In Tray. From the
In Tray, you can read, print, edit, file, reply to, or forward messages.
New mail notification informs you of new messages arriving. Objects are
automatically converted to the format of choice. Filters route messages
to the printer or the In Tray.
Filing
Messages and objects can be filed in folders in the HP NewWave filing
cabinet or shared by other users on the network using object storage.
Agent tasks
Task automation will be provided in HP NewWave Mail with the support of
keystroke record and playback. Actions performed using the mouse cannot
be recorded in HP NewWave Mail.

HP AdvanceMail
Benefits of HP AdvanceMail
HP AdvanceMail lets you create messages, read incoming messages, and
print them without being connected to the server. This means that
wherever connections are costly or time-consuming you can be independent
of the server for everything, except sending or receiving mail.
HP AdvanceMail can help by providing transfer at preset times so you use
mail when it is convenient and least expensive.
Quick and easy connections
HP AdvanceMail is ideal for PC users wherever they are and however they
connect. You connect to the server using connection files configured in
HP AdvanceMail. You simply choose between LAN or RS-232, modem or X.25
and HP AdvanceMail does the rest.
Protect and enhance your PC investment
You have made significant investment in your PC hardware and software.
HP AdvanceMail helps to protect and enhance that investment. It protects
it by supporting most available PC applications. It enhances your
investment by letting you integrate your applications into
HP AdvanceMail so you can use your own PC word processor to create your
mail messages.
Information on demand
The success of any business depends on the right information getting to
the right people at the right time. Important reports can be sent
without user intervention. This means vital information gets to its
destination quicker.
Your own electronic secretary
Sorting and filing mail is time-consuming. You (or your secretary) must
dispose of junk mail, prioritize urgent messages, and file others away.
HP AdvanceMail's filtering facility can automate this process and save
you, and your secretary, valuable time.
Commitment to standards
HP AdvanceMail is another example of Hewlett-Packard's commitment to
standards in communications. HP AdvanceMail supports RS-232 and CCITT
X.25 communications. It also supports ThinLAN, StarLAN, and StarLAN 10
