Press Release - July 1997


NetcPlus Steps Up Challenge for Leadership in Email Management 

Investment and new MD behind product launches
===========================================

A UK company, NetcPlus Internet Software Limited, has won a new tranche of
venture capital backing in a deal worth �1M + and is stepping up its
challenge for leadership in the growing market for email management
software. 

The company has recently appointed John Patterson as managing and
marketing director, with a remit to focus initially on the launch of new
multiple-user client and server packages and to set up international
distribution channels for the NetcPlus products. He joins NetcPlus from
Dolch Computer Systems UK, a subsidiary of a US company which he has
successfully established as the UK and Europe's leading supplier of
ruggedised portable computer systems.

Following three prior years of software development, NetcPlus was
established in 1996 with initial venture capital funding from Cambridge
Research and Innovation Limited. The company has already successfully
launched its NetcGold professional email client to general acclaim. With
its new backers, including the Cambridge Quantum Fund Ltd,  Atkins
Financial Investments Ltd and Cambridge Capital Management Ltd the third
quarter of 1997 will see the company  launch two new packages: the
SmartMail professional email client software and SmartServer, a low cost
business Intranet server system.

"The market for email software is experiencing phenomenal growth , with
the number of email boxes projected to exceed 48 million by the turn of
the century," said John Patterson. "To date, it is a market that has been
dominated by default by Qualcomm's Eudora product. Here at last is a
superior solution mounting a serious challenge - and it comes from a UK
company." .
