ON Technology and Infinite Technologies Agreement To Broaden Availability
of Alternative Message Transports

CAMBRIDGE, MASS., AND OWINGS MILLS, MD., APRIL 2, 1996 -- ON Technology
Corporation (Nasdaq: ONTC) and Infinite Technologies today announced a
strategic agreement that will broaden the availability of alternative
message transports for LAN electronic mail users worldwide.

Under terms of the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) agreement, ON
Technology gains the right to distribute Infinite Technologies' LAN-based
and remote message transports and SMTP gateway. These message switch
products are compatible with the Novell Messaging Handling Service (MHS)
family of products and provide high-performance alternatives for MHS-based
e-mail environments.

Beginning today, ON Technology will sell and support the Connect router,
Connect Remote router and ConnectSMTP gateway under its own ON Technology
brand.

"Offering the Connect products allows us to provide our customers
significant flexibility for building and expanding e-mail systems," said
John Rizzi, vice president of sales for ON Technology. "The Connect
products offer the reliability, performance and ongoing development that
customers require of their vital mission-critical communications
applications."

The Connect router is a message handling transport for LAN-based e-mail and
provides a bridge for ON Technology's DaVinci eMAIL and Notework e-mail
packages to communicate with other LAN-based e-mail applications such as
Lotus cc:Mail and Microsoft Mail. In combination with Connect Remote,
users on the road and in remote offices can connect to the central mail
system and seamlessly exchange e-mail with the LAN system. The Connect
SMTP gateway product provides connectivity between the Internet and LAN
based e-mail users.

According to a recent survey by the Electronic Mail & Messaging Systems
(EMMS) newsletter, ON Technology's DaVinci eMAIL and Notework packages
accounted for more than 75% of the NetWare-based e-mail market. Published
by Business Research Publications and based in New York City, EMMS is a
biweekly newsletter covering messaging technology, applications, products
and market trends.

"This agreement will convert a large segment of our target customers to the
Connect environment. These customers will utilize a powerful messaging
engine known for its high performance, scalability and fault tolerance. In
addition, through Connect they will be able to exchange messages with a
variety of other messaging systems such as cc:Mail and Microsoft Mail,"
said John Madill, president of Infinite Technologies.
