Hummingbird Communications is taking flight in the messaging market.

According to Hummingbird, the software handles 20 messages per second and stores up to 4 billion mail messages in logical volumes that span multiple disks. Mail Server also supports dial-up ISP (Internet service provider) connections and multiple virtual domains on a single server. It also maps multiple user names to a single physical account. The software requires Windows NT Server 3.51 or later with 64MB of RAM and at least 35MB of disk space (not including user accounts) From $995 for 99 users Hummingbird Communications Ltd. 416-496-2200, fax 416-496-2207
