The reason they need a flack jacket is because we've paid and paid for pretty dismal upgrades to the software. I know Ipswtich people feel they're huge but not when I can buy something for $.10 on the dollar that does more. At this point the pain in the ass factor of switching is in high gear. The more the SA's are the less of a pain it will be to move to something else.

Hi All,

Yes, you have very accurate information from your reseller/distie! these prices are correct for the Cross Grades (XGD) which is pricing available to all IMail SB, IMail Pro, IMail Express and Instant Messaging customers. And
yes, per John's comments, prices will be lower when purchased through a
reseller.

One thing to note about what's listed below is that IMail Secure (formerly
named ISP/EDU, as John noted below) is now available in 5 user levels,
whereas before, IMail Secure was only available in a single sku - Unlimited.
For those not aware, IMail Secure Server includes IMail, Symantec AV and
Mail-Filters AntiSpam but no collaboration.  Right now, this is our top
seller - basically this offering is for those who want more than just IMail
and who don't need collaboration (instant messaging & workgroupshare).

As noted, standalone IMail is coming as well.  Regarding this:

"Any one thinking about renewing their SA better act fast. Tech Data has 21
SAs for Imail Professional
inbound. The SA for Imail Professional is MSRP of $695 but I can resell them
from Tech Data for a lot less."

My sales guys may not like this but...the current $695 IMail Pro SA pricing is higher than the lower 3 tiers of IMail SA that are coming in less than a month. So depending on your situation, you may be better served waiting a
few more weeks to renew.

As before, don't hesitate to contact me directly with any specific questions
on pricing and packaging ([EMAIL PROTECTED], 781.676.5739).
Bye for now,

kg

I am not breaking any thing by passing on what I see in black and white text from my distributor, which has the new Imail Secure Server SKUs available for purchase. I am going to list the MSRP, not the distributor prices. This is for new product, not service agreements. Any one thinking about renewing
their SA better act fast. Tech Data has 21 SAs for Imail Professional
inbound. The SA for Imail Professional is MSRP of $695 but I can resell them
from Tech Data for a lot less.

25U IMAIL SECURE SVR XGD    $595
100U IMAIL SECURE SVR XGD    $1195
250U IMAIL SECURE SVR XGD    $1495
1000U IMAIL SECURE SVR XGD    $2849
UNLIMU IMAIL SECURE SVR XGD    $3995

You should be able to purchase them for 30% to 40% less than that from a
reseller.

Imail Secure Server is what was previously ICS ISP/EDU edition, which is
what Ipswitch tried to get us to buy instead of just Imail stand alone. It
will be interesting to see what Imail 2006 Standalone pricing will be.
