HP BizMail will be discontinuing service effective January 31st, 2008 and will no longer be accepting subscription purchases.
HP BizMail was designed as a business-class email hosting solution for companies that want the communication and collaboration tools offered by Microsoft Exchange without the challenges of hosting the solution in-house. As the Hosted Exchange market continues to evolve, with enhanced capabilities being added every year, HP evaluates the means to deliver the best solutions and products to the marketplace. Based on an evaluation of critical email needs against the expanding and reliable service offered by HP partners, we have determined that your email needs would be best served through an experienced HP partner. After careful consideration, we have decided to discontinue the HP BizMail service and HP recommends that you consider our partner, Apptix, for your hosted exchange service.
Apptix (OSE: APP), is a leading provider of hosted messaging and collaboration applications including Hosted Exchange, Hosted SharePoint, Hosted VoIP and Mobile IM for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).

Unparalleled Availability, Reliability and Security – Apptix offers a 99.99% Service Level Agreement (SLA) for its Hosted Exchange 2007 offering.
•
Flexibility –Apptix applications are built upon the Apptix OnDemand™ service management platform. Apptix OnDemand enables self-administration and rapid rollout of additional messaging and collaboration applications beyond your email system.
•
Ease of Implementation – With a robust infrastructure, a proven methodology and a broad range of end-to-end services, Apptix can rapidly provision your services and migrate your users.
Effective January 31st, 2008, HP will cease operations of the BizMail service. As mentioned above, we recommend that you migrate to the Apptix Hosted Exchange 2007 offering by this date if you wish to continue your hosted email service without interruption.
