ASP Associate Members (often called "ASP Approved Vendors") in good standing do not need to request permission to distribute this package. This permission is in effect until or unless we notify you otherwise, in writing. If your address, as listed in the ASP Vendor Catalog is incorrect, please send us your current address so we can ensure that you always have the most current version (mailed in a sealed envelope). ASP Associate Members in good standing will receive free upgrades for all shareware products developed and distributed by CACHE MICROSYSTEMS. ASP Vendor Members - Disk Sets: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ASP Vendor Members who wish to distribute the FASTMAIL package as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM package) may do so provided that all the other restrictions listed above are met. Other (Non-ASP) Disk Vendor Information: ---------------------------------------- Shareware Distributors and Disk Vendors who are not ASP Associate Members, but who wish to distribute the FASTMAIL package must comply with the following restrictions (in addition to those listed above, beginning on page 4). In order for us to ensure that only current versions are distributed, we require that you request permission from us (CACHE MICROSYSTEMS) to distribute any of our products. You may not list any of our products in advertisements, catalogs, or other literature which describes our products as "FREE SOFTWARE". Shareware is "Try-Before-You-Buy" software, it is not free. Vendor/Distributor Information Page 6 of 10 - FASTMAIL, Version 2.26 - Vendor.DOC - When making your request please ensure that we have your correct address and phone number, as well as the name of the person we may contact if necessary. Other (Non-ASP) Vendors - Disk Sets: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vendors (non-ASP Vendor Members) who wish to distribute the FASTMAIL package as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM package) must obtain permission from CACHE MICROSYSTEMS prior to beginning such a distribution. Applying for ASP Associate Membership: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you would like to apply for ASP Associate Membership (to become an ASP Approved Vendor), simply write to the following address and request a Vendor Membership Application Package: ASP Executive Director 545 Grover Road Muskegon, MI 49442-9427 U.S.A. or send a CompuServe message via CompuServe MAIL to ASP Executive Director 72050,1433. If you (Non-ASP Vendors) would like to be placed on our mailing list for future upgrades to any of our products, please refer to the "Vendor Update Program", described below. Computer Clubs: --------------- Computer Clubs and User Groups wishing to add the FASTMAIL package to their disk library may do so in accordance with the Distribution Restrictions listed above (beginning on page 4). If the version you have is over twelve (24) months old, please contact us to ensure that you have the most current version. If you would like your Computer Club or User Group to be placed on our mailing list for future upgrades to any of our products, please contact us for complete details. Our address, phone number, and CompuServe User ID number is listed above (page 3). Vendor/Distributor Information Page 7 of 10 - FASTMAIL, Version 2.26 - Vendor.DOC - Disk-of-the-Month (or Subscription) Distribution: ------------------------------------------------- If you would like to distribute the FASTMAIL package as a Disk-of-the-Month, or as part of a subscription or monthly service, then the following restrictions apply: ASP Associate (Disk Vendor) Members in good standing are hereby given permission to distribute the FASTMAIL package under the Disk-of-the-Month style of distribution. Others (non-ASP Members) must contact us in advance to ensure that you have the most current version of the software. You cannot use a Disk-of-the-Month distribution to use up your inventory of old (out of date) disks. Only current versions may be shipped as Disk-of-the-Month disks. This version was released in May, 1991. CD-ROM and Other Collections: ----------------------------- If you wish to add any of our programs to a CD-ROM or other collection, please check the release date of the version you have. If the version is over twelve (18) months old then please contact us to ensure that you have the most current version. This version was released in May, 1991. ASP Vendor Members who wish to distribute the FASTMAIL package as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM package) may do so provided that all the other restrictions listed above are met. Vendors (non-ASP Vendor Members) who wish to distribute the FASTMAIL package as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM package) must obtain permission from CACHE MICROSYSTEMS prior to beginning such a distribution. Unless this package was sent directly to the Vendor from CACHE MICROSYSTEMS. Vendor/Distributor Information Page 8 of 10 - FASTMAIL, Version 2.26 - Vendor.DOC - Vendor Update Program: ---------------------- Most non-ASP vendors have standard procedures for acquiring new files. They get them from other vendors, BBSs, etc. Most authors cannot afford to mail disks to hundreds (perhaps thousands) of vendors. However, some vendors prefer to obtain programs directly from the authors. If you would like to obtain programs directly from us, automatically, then please help us to cover the cost. If you are NOT an ASP Approved Vendor (in good standing), but you would still like to receive automatic updates directly from us, then please take advantage of our Vendor Update Program. Under this program you can receive updates for an entire year for only $10 per program (this helps to offset our costs). To receive updates, simply send us a letter with your name, company name, mailing address, the name of the person we should contact (such as your disk librarian), the program (or programs) for which you would like to receive updates, and a check or money order for $10 for each program (Countries outside of North America please add an additional $10 per program). Payment in U.S. funds drawn on a U.S. bank only please. The Vendor Update Program is available for the following products (as of May, 1991): FASTMAIL, Mailing List Manager VIDEO BUFF, Video Tape Tracking Program ALBUM KEEPER II, CD, Tape, Record Organizer All vendors participating in our Vendor Update Program will automatically receive any NEW programs which we may release while their Vendor Update Program is in effect. NOTE: ASP Associate Members automatically receive free updates and do not need to apply for the Vendor Update Program. This is yet another advantage to being an ASP Associate Member. The Vendor Update Program is only intended to help us cover our expenses in those cases where a vendor desires to obtain the program directly from us. If you have other standard ways to obtain programs, then you may prefer not to use our Vendor Update Program.
