Has anyone got a method of connecting 4.2BSD to Western Union's Easylink? It sure would be nice if our system could pick up messages automatically, rather than making someone use tip and Easylink's painful syntax. Anything in a similar vein would be useful.

Easylink is a major pain to work with. The biggest bit of brain damage is that their system can not accept input at 1200 bps. (i.e. when the computer sends as fast as it can out a 1200 bps modem). The thing to do (which we did) is to sign up for attmail. It is great (for telex anyway). You can have your telexs mailed automatically to you on your home machine and you can send telexs via normal unix mail. Our users are much happier now that they don't have to fight easylink. ---rick
