License Terms for Using and Distributing the Software LANMailServer

The program is legally protected by copyright and trade laws of the country where it is published, reproduced, or used. Mirko Böer Softwareentwicklungen, Malachitstraße 16, 04319 Leipzig, Germany, hereinafter referred to as 'Licensor,' owns all rights to the program (software) and allows its use only if the user acknowledges and complies with the following license terms. This creates the following license agreement between the licensee and the licensor:

1. Installation The licensor expressly points out that data backups should be performed before installing any new software on your system to prevent potential data loss. This precautionary measure should also be taken when installing this software. If your data has not yet been backed up, we strongly advise you to abort the installation immediately, back up your data, and restart the installation afterward. Additionally, it is recommended to perform regular data backups.

2. Warranty / Liability The licensor does not guarantee error-free functionality of the program. The licensor guarantees that the program's readability on a data carrier at the time of delivery is flawless, as long as the licensee uses the program under normal operating conditions and adheres to standard maintenance measures of the data processing system. The licensor assumes no liability for the program's error-free operation, particularly whether it meets the purchaser's requirements and purposes or cooperates with other programs selected by the purchaser. The licensor is liable without limitation for damage caused intentionally and/or by gross negligence. The licensor is also liable without limitation for all damages caused by the absence of a guaranteed property. In the case of slight negligence, the licensor is liable without limitation for personal injury related to performance delays, impossibility of performance, or the violation of cardinal obligations. For property and financial damages reasonably foreseeable at the time of contract conclusion, the liability is limited to double the purchase price (license fee, registration fee), regardless of whether the claims arise from contract law, compensation for damages, or other liability claims. If the licensor is in default at the time of impossibility, they are liable without limitation for damages incurred due to the impossibility; however, not if the damage would have occurred even if the performance had been timely. In all other cases, liability is excluded. Liability under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected.

3. Scope of Use The software is copyrighted in favor of the licensor. The rights to publish, reproduce, edit, and exploit the software are solely held by the licensor. All copyright notices and other markings in the software, such as registration numbers and notices of the licensor, may not be removed. The introduction of the software into other software of any kind is prohibited.

   a. Different Conditions for Shareware Version of the Software:

   You can recognize the Shareware version by the fact that, upon program start, a Shareware notification window appears with the remaining trial days and/or the message "This version is Shareware." This window must be confirmed at every program start before the software can be used.

   The program is provided "as is" and may only be used freely in its current version subject to the following restrictions:

   The software may be copied, published, and distributed in its unmodified form, as provided by the licensor, as long as no fees are charged for use, distribution, publication, or duplication.

   Free use of the software is limited to 35 days. After this period, the user is required to either stop using it or purchase a paid usage license for the software.

   The licensor points out that the software, in its current Shareware version, may also be freely distributed, published, and copied by any hardware and software manufacturers or dealers, including Shareware distributors, CD-ROM manufacturers, and magazine publishers for inclusion on cover CDs, as well as by any providers of software/hardware and services, as long as no charges exceeding the usual fees for Shareware programs and collections are demanded.

   In connection with the publication, third parties must be informed that the software is a Shareware program.

   Paid distribution, publication, or duplication of the program is explicitly prohibited.

    

   b. Different Conditions for the Licensed Version:

   You can recognize the licensed version by the entry "Registered to..." during program start and/or in the start window or information window of the software. During use, the indication "..." is replaced with a reference to the respective licensee.

   The licensor grants the licensee, for the duration of the current agreement, a simple, non-exclusive, and personal right to use the software on a single personal computer and only at one location. Any further use is not permitted.

   The licensee is particularly prohibited from:

   • Passing the software or individual program components to third parties or making it accessible to third parties in any way, especially in the form of lending or renting;

   • Transferring the software over a network or data transmission channel from one computer to another;

   • Modifying, translating, reverse-engineering, decompiling, or disassembling the software;

   • Creating derivative works.

   By purchasing the program, the licensee only acquires ownership of a physical data carrier unless the licensing material is provided via remote data transmission. In both cases, no rights beyond those specified are granted.

   The creation of a (single) backup copy is only permissible for backup purposes, provided the software is delivered on a physical data carrier.

4. Duration of the Agreement The agreement is concluded for an indefinite period. Any violation of the license terms by the licensee revokes the right to use without the need for termination by the licensor.

5. Compensation for Breach of Contract The licensee is liable for all financial damages that the licensor incurs due to copyright infringement or a breach of these contract terms.

6. Changes and Updates The licensor is entitled to update the software at its discretion. The licensor is not obligated to provide updates to the licensee. Any updates to the software are always free of charge. The licensee will be informed about product innovations by email if a valid email address was provided during the software's licensing. The licensee can freely decide whether to download and install the update at their own expense.

7. Product Names and Trademarks All product names and registered trademarks used in this text, the documentation, and the software are hereby acknowledged as the property of their owners, regardless of whether they are marked as such or not. Should any provision of these license terms be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions will not be affected. Instead of the invalid provisions, such valid provisions will be deemed agreed upon that come closest to the intention of the invalid provisions in favor of the licensor.
