Deutsche Rentenversicherung awards De-Mail order to Mentana-Claimsoft

FP subsidiary convinces with multi-client-capable gateway

Birkenwerder, 4 June 2013 - In the future, Deutsche Rentenversicherung will
send and receive De-Mails via the gateway from Mentana-Claimsoft, a
subsidiary of listed company Francotyp-Postalia Holding AG (FP).
Mentana-Claimsoft won the De-Mail invitation to tender that was issued by
Germany's national statutory pension insurance company for an agreement
lasting over three-and-a-half years, with implementation beginning in May
2013.

Mentana-Claimsoft scores points with multi-client capability

The decisive criteria for awarding the order to the FP subsidiary primarily
included the multi-client capability of the De-Mail gateway, its
suitability for computer centres and availability for Windows and Linux.
'We had already installed the central gateway at the data office of the
pension insurance companies (DSRV) for a trial run during the invitation to
tender,' says sagt Axel Janhoff, Geschäftsführer der Mentana-Claimsoft
GmbH. 'Now that the contract has been concluded, the process of switching
to live operation and specifying initial De-Mail applications is underway.'

De-Mail for companies and authorities

De-Mail is the digital twin of a letter. It allows mail to be sent in a
fully electronic format in a binding, confidential and legally binding
manner for the first time. It is estimated that up to 10% of annual mail in
Germany could be sent via De-Mail in the next three to five years. However,
before this can happen, it is necessary to build up a suitable
infrastructure, to specify areas of use for De-Mail and to set up the
relevant processes with the involvement of the customers, as Deutsche
Rentenversicherung is doing now.

With the De-Mail portal for private customers and small customers and the
De-Mail gateway for companies and authorities, FP offers every sender a
wide range of products and services. Both companies and authorities require
the simple implementation of a De-Mail gateway, which is integrated as
software in the customer's existing IT infrastructure and allows for custom
adaptations.

Private individuals and small businesses enjoy the benefits of the
web-based De-Mail portal. Customers simply register once at
