Can someone tell me a little about the Software Tools mail system I keep reading about in INFO-VAX? How does one get this mail system? Thanks, Mike Iglesias University of California, Irvine MIGLESIAS@UCIVMS (BITNET)

The Software Tools mail system is available for VAX/VMS and RSX (and would not be difficult to port to UN*X, since the tools are available there). The tools are available from DECUS (see the Cincinnatti VAX SIG tape, and the newest L&T SIG tape). They are also FTP -able from LBL-WS (via the KERMIT account I believe). Some of the Software Tools mail system features: - Complies with the DoD SMTP protocol - It's a store and forward mailer - It has a built in Bulletin Board system - It's in the Public Domain - It's portable - It's modular (easy to add support for other networks) - It supports DECnet and TCP/IP with the release The tools are also available from STUG on the new VAX/VMS V4.x tools tape. This tape has just been released to support VMS V4.x and earlier systems. STUG 140 Center Street El Segundo, CA 90245
