STR upgrades its fax application for HP 3000s

STR Software has released the 4.8 version of AventX MPE, its flagship information delivery product for the MPE/iX operating system. AventX MPE faxes and e-mails critical business documents such as purchase orders, invoices and acknowledgements from inside an MPE/iX environment.

The latest version enables customers with FAXCOM NT/2000-based fax servers to send e-mail with PDF and TXT attachments via AventX Mail, a product option which lets users deliver documents via e-mail. The AventX Manager, which is packaged with AventX MPE, now supports printing to Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Also available with the current release are enhancements to reporting and statistics information, profile faxing, improved support of FAXCOM fax servers, and better control of document delivery through batch processing.

Existing customers can download a copy of the upgraded software for free. They can also request a complimentary CD-ROM or purchase a 4mm DDS tape for $250 by contacting technical support at support@strsoftware.com or 804.897.1600.

STR also reports it has placed AventX MPE in several new sites in the months since HP announced it will end its support of the server. New customers include Red Valve, a manufacturer whose products handle slurries, sewage, storm water, abrasives and corrosives; Luscar Limited, Canada’s largest coal company and one of the largest coal producers in North America; Miles Kimball, a catalog company for consumer goods and household products; Sligh Furniture, which manufactures and markets home office furniture, business office furniture and clocks; and Health Plan of San Mateo, a Medi-Cal county-wide health system.
