Andover, MA, May 11, 1998 - Actual Software Corporation today announced that its MultiMail™ Conduit Pack will support the Apple Macintosh platform. The new Macintosh Development Kit, by Palm Computing® Inc, a 3Com company, has made this product possible. MultiMail Conduit Pack for Macintosh is planned for an early summer release.

Actual Software's MultiMail Conduit Pack allows 3Com PalmPilot users to use HotSync® technology to syncronize messages between the 3Com PalmPilot organizer and desktop email clients. The MultiMail Conduit Pack will support all major desktop email clients. It can be used in conjunction with the built-in 3Com PalmPilot organizer email program or can be used with MultiMail Professional or MultiMail Discovery by Actual Software Corporation.

"We feel the 3Com PalmPilot organizer should be an extension of your desktop. To a large number of our customers, that desktop is a Macintosh. The MultiMail Conduit Pack for Macintosh will allow us to fulfill our objective of allowing our customers to use their organizer seamlessly and effortlessly regardless of their computing platform." said Lorraine Wheeler, Vice President of Marketing for Actual Software Corporation.

Mark Bercow, vice president of strategic alliances and platform development for Palm Computing said about the MultiMail Conduit, "The Macintosh support offered in the MultiMail Conduit Pack provides a unique offering for our customers. It extends the features offered to those using the Macintosh platform."

With the introduction of MultiMail Discovery in November, 1997, Actual Software launched the first IMAP4/POP3 internet email client for the 3Com PalmPilot Professional organizer. By allowing direct access from your organizer to your mail server, MultiMail Discovery has become one of the most popular shareware product for the 3Com PalmPilot organizer. In January, 1998, Actual Software released MultiMail Professional, a greatly enhanced and highly successful commercial version of MultiMail Discovery. Actual Software will release the MultiMail Conduit Pack for Windows at the end of May.
