(I couldn't think of another place to put this request, so here it is...) Basically, I am looking for any information regarding non-Unix access to UUCP, mainly for people that don't have accounts on Unix machines and are more apt to call mainly bulletin boards. I have heard of several such services, one being something called Portal, and I think the other was called Crossroads, or something like that. Basically, they allow anyone that has a modem and a terminal or computer to subscribe to them, and then access UUCP. If anyone has any information on these or similar services, I would really appreciate some e-mail from you with some information on how to contact and/or subscribe to these services. (Please send responses via e-mail... I don't get the time to read the newsgroups that often...) Thanks in advance...
