Turnpike (Universal Licence) One off £199.00 inc VAT Benefits Need email or newsreader client software to use with another ISP? If you wish to use Turnpike with another ISP, in the UK or abroad, then you will need to purchase this Universal Licence. From Turnpike Six v6.07 you can now run up to 255 email users on your LAN concurrently without further payments for multi-user licences. Turnpike is an email and newsgroup handler, enabling you to send and receive email, and subscribe to, read, and post to newsgroups. Turnpike holds the Good Net-Keeping Seal of Approval, and we continue to have no reports of any virus targeting Turnpike. Powerful routing rules allow you to send your incoming mail to whichever nested folder(s) you wish; or you can just use the defaults. For newsgroups, Turnpike functions as an offline reader for newsgroups, rather than an online one, but with Broadband you can use it as a pseudo-online reader. Email and news is collected by a single machine, which is then shared by up to 255 people on a LAN. Turnpike routes email to whomever it is addressed, keeping it secure from other LAN users. Users on a single Turnpike-equipped LAN can email each other, as well as outside addresses. Turnpike gives each user their own view of news - for example, which newsgroups they are subscribed to, what they have read and not read, what they have marked 'Interesting' or 'Uninteresting' - but cleverly aggregates everyone's individual needs so that any given posting in any given newsgroup is only fetched once, no matter how many users are subscribed. You can thread mail if you wish. This is particularly useful on any mailing lists you might be subscribed to, each of which you can treat as mail in its own folder, or as a Newsgroup. The latter allows you to expire the postings, just like a newsgroup. Turnpike can also act as a POP3 or IMAP server, and be read by programs like Microsoft Outlook (please note that this is an unusual and unsupported arrangement that experts on the Turnpike newsgroup sometimes provide self help and advice for).
