June 2, 2000 Restaurant.com Chooses Mail.com's Scalable Business Messaging Platform for Its Rapidly Growing E-Commerce Service Mail.com Production IP Fax Service Helps Restaurant Industry Provide High-Touch Services to Customers Mail.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAIL), a leading global provider of Internet messaging services for businesses, announced today that Restaurant.com, a leading dining and lifestyle portal, is the latest e-commerce business to implement Mail.com's Production IP Fax Services. Developed as a dual platform for consumers and restaurateurs, www.restaurant.com offers a search engine with an extensive database of restaurants nationwide, information on the latest dining trends, healthy eating tips, wine selections, gift certificates, food ordering and delivery and more. Mail.com's Production IP Fax Service connects Restaurant.com's Web customers to restaurants nationwide by delivering Web-based orders as faxes to restaurants anywhere in the country. Using Mail.com's ServerLink API, Restaurant.com's developers quickly built and deployed a customized onramp to Mail.com's high-capacity Production IP Fax Service. Mail.com's Production IP Fax Service powers many of the Web's leading sites in areas such as shopping, real estate, home improvement, car buying and trading communities- all of which have an important requirement for high volume fax delivery. Restaurant.com is working to expand the site's database listings into complete Internet strategies for each restaurateur by creating content-rich, interactive micro-sites. The sites then will be linked within Restaurant.com, providing national exposure to every restaurant in the network. Restaurants nationally are now beginning to sign up for Restaurant.com micro-sites. Restaurant.com expects tens of thousands of restaurants to have complete micro-sites within the year, positioning Restaurant.com to be the largest provider of customized Web sites in the industry. "Mail.com's robust and well-documented API made building Internet faxing into our system simple and painless," said Restaurant.com chief operating officer Scott Lutwak. "Without Mail.com's service, we wouldn't be able to scale up fast enough and in the Internet business scalability is crucial. We're able to roll out our ordering service on a national level much quicker than we would have if we had built the capability ourselves." About Restaurant.com Restaurant.com is positioned to be the largest and most comprehensive dining portal on the Web, serving as a consumer's personal dining consultant. It boasts a search engine containing a database of 350,000 restaurants. Restaurant.com's wide range of functionality and strategic corporate alliances distinguish it from other restaurant Web sites.
