[comp.sys.mac] QuickMail scripts to Unix mail

kratz@dataspan.UUCP (Geoff Kratz) (11/08/88)

To QuickMail sites:  Has anyone out there written a script for QuickMail
that sends and receives mail to/from Suns or other Unix boxes?  A friend
of mine has a number of Macs and Suns and they would like to be able to
send mail to the rest of the world, but do it using QuickMail on their Macs.
It seems to me that a script using the Telecom bridge should work well, but
they would rather not duplicate the effort if its already been done before.
Please email any replies and I will summarize later.

Thanks in advance.

No, Please post replies as I'm sure there are many of us interested in this.
I certainly am.  Starnine in Berkeley are developing Mac and Unix software to
do Quickmail to Unix and vice versa, however I dont know when it will be ready.

I have no affiliation to Starnine.

Here is a script that a friend wrote.  I just got QuickMail today and haven't
even tried the script yet.  In other words, no guarantees.  I'm sure there
are some site-specific commands, but, you should be able to find them and
customize to your site.

Enjoy,

CE Software has (or will have real soon) a Unix bridge for QuickMail.
I haven't seen it, but it supposedly allows you to enclose files with
your messages.

I'm interested in the same concept using a Kinetics Box running TCP/IP 
to/from a VAX 8650 running ULTRIX.

Also, how does one set-up a Mail_Center on this VAX to act as place for
all mail messages to be stored with QuickMail?

Any pointers or detailed directions would be greatly appretiated!
