*** Welcome to MailCheck! ***

MailCheck is a unique Electronic Mail management system that 
allows you to monitor the status of all your mail connections 
so that when mail is not getting delivered, you find out about 
and correct the problem before mail users start complaining.

*** Why is MailCheck Important? ***

Most E-Mail systems are connected to other E-Mail systems with 
gateways or other mail links.  Even within a company, each 
department may have its own local mail system connected to 
other departments through mail links.  When you send mail 
from one system to another, it has to pass through the link.  
These links are usually run on a dedicated machine somewhere in 
a back room.  When a link fails (which, unfortunately, happens 
fairly often) there is usually no way to know that it has 
happened unless you happen to check the machine itself.  Mail 
that was supposed to pass though the link starts piling up 
until someone notices that mail is not getting delivered and 
starts complaining.  Depending on the amount of mail on the 
link it can be hours, days, or even weeks before someone 
notices the problem..

*** What will MailCheck do for you? ***

MailCheck will periodically check to see that mail is getting 
delivered to and from the other mail systems that your mail 
system has links to.  When one of the links fails MailCheck 
will automatically alert you to the problem so that you can fix 
it before too much mail starts piling up.  MailCheck is not 
just a gateway monitor:  MailCheck verifies that mail can 
actually be sent to and received from remote mail systems.  
MailCheck works with most of the popular LAN mail systems in
use today and can also be used to check links to public mail 
networks such as MCI Mail and UUNET.

*** Who needs MailCheck? ***

If your mail system is connected to other mail systems, even if 
the remote mail system is of the same type, you are sending 
mail over a mail link.  If you depend on a mail link to send 
and receive mail, you need MailCheck to ensure that the links 
are working.  If you have mail-enabled applications that depend 
on the timely delivery of mail, or if you receive important 
unsolicited mail from other mail systems, you need MailCheck 
because lost or delayed messages can mean aggravation, lost 
opportunities, and lost business.

*** Installing the MailCheck Demo. ***

To install the MailCheck demo, simply start Windows, select 
"File"|"Run" and enter "A:INSTALL". The Demo will ask you a few
questions and then install itself. The demo does NOT MODIFY your
AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS, or WIN.INI files. After you are done
with the demo, you can have the demo uninstall itself too! Just
run the install program again and select the "Remove" choice on
the first screen.

*** Running the MailCheck Demo ***

The MailCheck demo shows you the actual user interface of the 
MailCheck product. The interface is fully functional and you can 
use it to see what features are available.  The E-Mail system that
the demo displays is simulated. It gives you an idea of what the 
MailCheck system can tell you when your mail system has problems.

You can get information about the demo version by selecting 
"Demo Info" from the Help menu. The first time you run the demo,
this help file will automatically be displayed.  You can get more 
information about MailCheck itself by perusing the MailCheck help 
system.
