This communications server is tightly integrated with Internet protocols allowingany part or all of the FirstClass system to be published on the Web. E-mail messages, individual mailboxes, calendars and database forms will be available through browsers, including Netscape Communications Corp.'s Navigator and Microsoft Corp.'s Internet Explorer.
