If you're using Banyan's Intelligent Message, they just came out with a
product called Intranet Connect. It allows you to access your Vines
mailbox with a browser from the Internet. It uses the Secure Socket Layer,
encrypting everything that goes over the Internet. Since it uses VinesIP
to connect to the internal mail servers, it's rather easy to lock out
unwanted access to your internal net.

Hello all ..
I appologize if I'm asking a question that has been recently discussed
.. I've been off the list for a while and have missed recent dialogues.
The question is ...
I'm getting approached by various groups in my company, that want to
use Web oriented email clients, to access our email servers. That is,
they want to use the clients from the Internet points, to access servers
on the trusted/internal side of our network. They'd like us therefore,
to allow http access through the firewall. We don't allow that now, and
I don't plan to allow it in the future.
Is there a secure means for providing such email access?
Dick
