1. The definition of an Annual Subscription is a license to run Declude for a period of a year at which time the Annual Subscription has to be renewed to continue running Declude. Annual Subscription does NOT apply to customers of Declude prior 8 Feb 06.
2. Existing Customers prior to 8 Feb 06 CAN continue using the Service Agreement model. This mean you purchase a Annual Service agreement to ensure support and having access to new releases of Declude for that year. If your Service Agreement lapses you are still able to run Declude you will just not have access to support or new releases. 3. Annual Subscription is NOT the same Annual Service Agreement. 4. For Customers prior to 8 Feb 06 you CAN continue to use Declude as you always have with the ability to purche an Annual Service Agreement. 5. With regards to Version 3.0 and 4.0 there is NO major difference in functionality except that 4.0 runs as a single product with Declude EVA PRO, Junkmail PRO and Hijack. Where as Version 3.0 still supports 3 individual products. 6. Customers prior to 8 Feb 06 are NOT forced into upgrading to version 4.0 but have an option to do so at greatly reduced price. 7. I am pulling together some additional release notes on a comparison between version version 3.0 and 4.0 which I hope to have available next week.

The pricing of some outsourced solutions which have a per mailbox fee might actually be lower now that Declude is also an annual required payment. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Darin Cox Sent: Friday, February 10, 2006 8:49 AM To: Declude.JunkMail@declude.com Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] declude 4 changes ... worried... Yep. at that price it's time to move to something else or build our own system. Declude, come back with something reasonable or you'll lose customers like IMail did.

So I thought I'd go web browsing on the Declude site and see what is up with Declude 4. I'm a Virus Pro and Junkmail Pro licensee on Imail. Going forward Declude 4 is the entire suite (Virus Pro, Junkmail Pro and Hijaak). Kevin's post mentions that Declude 3 will be supported. Although long term how long will they support two different code sets? I'd say my long-term gut feeling isn't good. Next I look through the purchase page. Declude 4 for Imail is now only available for a $1450 Annual Subscription. Ouch. The last time I paid maintenance for Declude it was $265. That's a bump. (Essentially having only one domain here), That is mighty pricey especially compared to the Declude for Smartmail 1 domain price of $199. Don't get me wrong, I really like the Declude prodcut. It's so flexible that you can do many different things... I just can't see how smaller entities like me are going to positively affected by these changes. ----------------------------------------------------- Scott Fisher Director of IT Farm Progress Companies 191 S Gary Ave Carol Stream, IL 60188 630-462-2323 This email message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
