CeBIT: Mentana-Claimsoft is first accredited De-Mail provider
Francotyp-Postalia subsidiary receives accreditation certificate -
Presentation of products and price structure for new communication
technology - De-Mail net cost from 28 cents
Birkenwerder, 6 March 2012 - De-Mail has been given the go-ahead:
Mentana-Claimsoft GmbH, a subsidiary of listed company Francotyp-Postalia
Holding AG (FP), today became the first accredited De-Mail provider. The
Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) presented the accreditation
certificate to Mentana-Claimsoft Managing Director Axel Janhoff. The FP
subsidiary also gave a public presentation of its business model.
'Initially, we are making the distinction between our De-Mail portal, which
is geared towards private customers and small businesses, and our De-Mail
gateway for companies and authorities', explains Axel Janhoff.
The following applies both to companies and authorities and to private
individuals and small business owners: the cost of sending a De-Mail
depends on the amount of data sent and starts at 28 cents (not including
VAT). This is the cost of sending a 'mini De-Mail' of up to 50 KB. A
standard De-Mail, for which users can send De-Mails of up to 1 MB, costs 33
cents (not including VAT) - which is considerably cheaper than sending a
normal standard letter by post. A number of extra options are also
available at a surcharge, including confirmation of delivery or receipt.
De-Mail gateway for companies and authorities
Mentana-Claimsoft can implement a De-Mail gateway for companies and
authorities. This is integrated as a software element in the customer's
existing IT infrastructure, and custom adaptations are also possible. The
cost of using the De-Mail gateway depends on the number of internal users
the customer requires. Depending on the term of the agreement, other
services are also provided and additional options can be requested.
For integration of up to 10 users, for example, the gateway costs EUR99
(net) a month. 'The gateway will pay for itself if every user sends less
than 10 De-Mails a month', Mr Janhoff goes on to say. De-Mail addresses for
companies and authorities are based on the following format: joe.bloggs(at)any
company.de-mail.de.
De-Mail portal for private customers and small businesses
The De-Mail portal is a web-based solution that is geared towards private
individuals and small business owners: customers simply have to be
identified when registering for the first time at www.fp-demail.de, and
they will then receive their own De-Mail address and can send De-Mails
straight away. The identification process costs just EUR9.90, or users can
identify themselves free of charge using the new ID card. The De-Mail
addresses end in '.(at)fp-demail.de' or '.(at)fpbrief.de-mail.de'.
Outlook: '10% of the relevant mail potential'
With the new De-Mail communication technology, users can send sensitive
documents in digital form in a safe, confidential and legally binding
manner. These documents include personal data, offers, confirmations of
orders, notifications, reminders and registered post with advice of
receipt. 'We are relying on the assumption that in three to five years, 10%
of the relevant mail potential will be sent by De-Mail', explains Andreas
Drechsler, member of the Management Board of Francotyp-Postalia Holding AG.
'This equates to around 540 million mails.' In the medium term, Mr
Drechsler is aiming to obtain 10% of the De-Mail market.
De-Mail is a digital letter: it is binding in that both the sender and
recipient must be securely identified when registering for the first time,
before they are able to use the technology. Confidentiality is guaranteed
with especially strong encryption. The De-Mail Act, which came into force
in May 2011, defines the security requirements and provides the legal basis
so that De-Mail has the same legal effect as conventional mail.
