                          MEMBERS NETWORK ACCESS


       Under a special arrangement with Message Handling Systems -
       operators of TMX (The Message eXchange) - AUUG is providing
       members with a packaged offering for electronic mail and
       news access to the major networks.

       The Message eXchange is a well established service that has
       been operating for over twelve months with a growing user
       community that includes individuals, large computer vendors
       and small software organisations.

       AUUG members can dial-in to the TMX facilities to exchange
       messages with:

                    o other AUUG members

                    o the main Australian and overseas networks

                    o all or selected Australian and Usenet news
                      groups

                    o the Clarinet professional news and
                      information service.

       The special price for registered AUUG members is a one-time
       $395 (the normal TMX fee is $495) which is inclusive of an
       initial 10 free connect hours and a special version of the
       MHSnet software.  After the first ten hours, connection
       rates are $8.00 per hour.  (For volume users there is an
       optional prepayment of $1200 for 300 hours at $4.00 per
       connect hour).  There is a minimum fee of one hour per
       month.

       Connection to TMX may be via V22, V22bis, V32 and PEP
       modems.  MS.DOS and Apple MacIntosh connections are also
       available.

       The Clarinet service, for which fees are applicable,
       includes UPI wireservice, computer industry news, financial
       information and up-to-date major world news stories.

       The TMX service is currently available in Sydney and the
       Melbourne service is expected to be operational by July.
       While other centres would need to dial-in to either of these
       systems, it is intended to expand the service to other
       states based on traffic demand.

       AUUG is pleased to be able to introduce this service to its
       members as a means to increase communication effectiveness.
