I have just seen a demonstration of what FirstClass etc. can do.  I
have used WebCt and Blackboard, and at UMaine we are about 85% users of
FirstClass for e mail.  FC is outstanding - the new possibilities for
course management are exciting for languages.  After leaving WebCT for
the friendlier Blackboard, I'm definitely going to switch to FirstClass
with its enhanced capabilities, including recording of voices and
unified messaging system.
