Impulse Internet Services Announces Webmail With Integrated Spam Control

Webmail Allows Convenience of "Anywhere Access" to Email and Extends Functionality of Spam Assassin

Santa Barbara, CA, May 19th, 2003 - Impulse Internet Services announced today the availability of Webmail, a web browser based email client that allows Impulse customers to log in and check email from any computer with an Internet connection and a standard web browser such as MS Internet Explorer. Webmail integrates the functionality of Spam Assassin, allowing Impulse customers to identify and filter or delete email before it ever reaches their computer.

Impulse customers can now log on to http://webmail.impulse.net to read and manage their email, store address book information, and even use the calendar function to track appointments. The integrated Spam Assassin tool allows Impulse customers to set a junk mail filter according to their preferred sensitivity and delete it automatically, or divert it to a separate mailbox where it can be reviewed at leisure, or simply let expire after three weeks. Spam Assassin can be set up and configured in Webmail to affect mail retrieved in email clients such as Outlook Express or Eudora as well.
