The account I have is geared toward the average Windows or Mac user. What would be a good way of getting mail to and from my system. Until now I have telneting into my ISP's host, and reading mail there using pine, pico or whatever. I have heard that it is possible to run UUCP over a PPP link - this would probably be good. Does anyone know where I could find out about this, or have any other suggestions ? Anthony Hill
