I've set up a DOS "mail gateway" that does SMTP & POP3 and is capable of using an existing winsock connection. The said gateway (Netmail) uses .txt and .wrk files in the configured "inbox" and "outbox" ( a la Unix, according to its docs). Is it possible to coax a FBSD MUA to write the above required .txt and .wrk files to a DOS partition, i.e. Netmail's "outbox"? I want to read/write my mail in FBSD but receive/send in Win9x. Why? -- can't afford an "no-strings-attached" ISP at the moment. I have a standalone box with Win9x on wd0 and 3.3R on wd1. Private replies OK!!
