that as part of its continuing campaign to provide truly usable software
for people in small business, home and education markets, it has dropped
the price of Claris Emailer to $49.

"Claris is reducing the estimated retail price of Claris Emailer in North
America so that all Macintosh users will have access to a full-featured,
easy-to-use email manager at a great low price," said Michael Sanabria,
Communications products manager for Claris. "Through award-winning

its tradition of offering tremendous value to customers."

With the incredible growth of the Internet: global reach to over 100
countries, availability to well over 24 million users, approximately
15,000 commercial sites, monthly growth rates exceeding 10%, interest in
accessing the Internet for email correspondence is tremendous. Claris
Emailer is the only Macintosh email manager that supports users who
subscribe to an Internet service and to those who subscribe to popular
on-line services like America Online and CompuServe. Claris Emailer lets
users send, receive, reply, forward, and store email messages and files
quickly and easily. And users with multiple accounts or services will

application.

settings who needs to keep in contact with friends, family, customers and
colleagues worldwide, because it automates the sending and receiving of
email and file enclosures.

An array of automated mail features enables Claris Emailer to sort, file,
delete, and reply to messages automatically. Its handy address book
provides effortless contact management: instead of constantly re-typing
contact information, users can import addresses from anywhere, or add
contacts from incoming messages, with a single click. Claris Emailer can
also maintain multiple addresses for each contact, and users look them up
instantly by simply typing the first few letters of the recipient's name.
