- fast, efficient communications between individual electronic
- mailboxes. You can access your mailbox anywhere in the U.S. via
- Autonet. In other countries, you can access your mailbox through
- any International Record Carrier/Autonet link.
-
- AutoMail supports a wide variety of electronic mail applications
- including status reporting, library requests, document reviews,
- suggestions boxes, scheduling, and general purpose communica-
- tions.
-

- tion:

- automatically summarized so you can decide what to read
- first.
-
- o Handle your mail more efficiently. Read your message, then
- use AutoMail features to forward or file them, or to send
- your responses.
-
- o Encourage timely communication. It is easy to send AutoMail
- messages since you use a simple dialog to create them.

- individuals. Use AutoMail address lists to make sure that the
- information goes to the right people. Verifications tell you
- exactly when each copy is delivered.

- interest. You control who may access each AutoMail bulletin
- board.

- your AutoMail directory can be centrally defined or privately
- defined for one mailbox. You control who may access each
- centrally-defined group.
-
- DELEGATED MESSAGE RECEIPT so a single user (for example, a
- secretary) at your locations can easily obtain copies of all in-
- coming messages, under one password control. Incoming messages
- are sorted for easy distribution.
-
- TELEX and TWX ACCESS so you can use your AutoMail mailbox to com-
- municate with any Telex or TWX location in the world. ON-LINE

- any prompt for a complete explanation of the options available to
- you.
-
- The AutoMail service is easy to learn because it speaks your
- language. You say CREATE to create a message, SEND to send it.
- Award-winning documentation provides all of the information you
- need, whether you are a new user or an expert.
-
-
- Security
-
- Since your own organization maintains a separate directory, you
- are guaranteed a high level of control and security. You define
- which mailboxes may access restricted information. Your own
- AutoMail administrator has control over all of the AutoMail
- capabilities your organization uses, so you can change your
- directory whenever you need to, without contacting ADP. Security
- and confidentiality of your messages is always protected by a
- secret password.

- INTERNATL: INFO
-
-
- ADP Autonet supports access to U.S.-based host computers from
- more than 55 international centers. Access is available through
- direct connections with international record carriers (IRCs) or
- through interconnections with third party networks.
-
- Users can arrange access to Autonet from these countries by
- establishing an account with the responsible agency in the
- country of interest. A service representative will be able to
- provide complete information regarding subscriptions, invoicing,
- and general business operations.
-
- The administration of foreign communications services varies from
- country to country; therefore, service offerings, ordering and
- access procedures, rates, and billing methods for each country
- may be different. Generally, each country provides local service
- through its own network, managed by an agency such as the Postal
- and Telephone-Telegraph (PTT) administration.
-
-
- To obtain a complete list of countries from which you can access
- Autonet, use the option INTERNATL. Then, type NATION and use the
- HELP command. A list will be printed for you.
-
-
- International Access Procedures
-
-
- Typically, international network access procedures involve enter-
- ing a 14-digit international data number at the beginning of each
- terminal session. This number identifies the host to which the
- user wants to establish a virtual connection. The international
- data number is formatted as follows:
-
-
- AAAABBBCCCCDDD
-
- where:
-
- AAAA = 3126 (Autonet's data network identification code)
- BBB = Area code of host location
- CCCC = Network address of host
- DDD = Network sub-address of host
-
-
- This procedure may vary, depending on the access methods of the
- particular country. The local PTT in each country will provide
- you with complete instructions when you have arranged an account
- with them.
