Express Access provides Internet Mail, Usenet Newsgroups and Internet
connectivity. Internet services include Telnet, FTP and IRC.
Express Access can be reached via local phone call from the
Washington/Baltimore area, and nationally via the Internet, or through
use of the Sprint PC-Pursuit service.
The Internet Community has two main tools for the sharing of
information: Electronic Mail and Newsgroups. With Express Access, you
have unlimited use of both. Express Access offers all of the newsgroups
without regard to content; our corporate policy is to provide the
highest levels of privacy and integrity possible.
Internet services are used to interact with other computers and users on
the worldwide Internet. The Telnet facility allows a user to connect to
other computers all over the world and log into them. FTP allows files
to be transferred to and from those systems on the Internet, including
many gigabytes of publically accessible files. Services such as Archie
will allow you to describe what you are looking for, and then they will
search the worldwide network to find it for you. IRC (Internet Relay
Chat) allows real-time chatting between Express Access users and users
logged into other systems all over the world.
Express Access is connected to both Washington and Baltimore area phone
lines, so that it is a local call from the Metro Baltimore and Metro
Washington areas, and most anything in between. If you're not sure if
we're a local call from your area, contact us. V.32bis/V.42bis
connections are now supported to both Washington and Baltimore.
The bottom line - Express Access costs $15 per month for a Mail and News
only account, or $25 per month with full Internet privileges. That gets
you one hour per day of "prime-time" system access (from 3 pm to 3 am
Eastern time each day) and unlimited system access at all other times.
Each account includes unlimited mail and news posting, 2 megabytes of
file space, and shell access on a Sun Microsystems server.
More detailed information is available by logging into our system as
"new" on your local modem number: 301-220-0462 in the Washington area,
410-766-1855 in the Baltimore area, or by telnetting to digex.com
[192.55.213.2]. Select "Instant Account Application" from the menu.
Those wishing to pay by credit card may have an account set up within
24 hours. American Express, Mastercard, Visa, Diners and Carte Blanche
are accepted.
Express Access can also be accessed from most major metro areas in the
United States, via PC-Pursuit. For more information on PC-Pursuit,
contact US-Sprint at 800-736-1130.
