[comp.dcom.modems] International E-mail suggestions

peter@stca77.stc.oz (Peter Jeremy) (10/28/88)

We are looking into setting up international e-mail links between Australia,
England and USA for internal mail and I would appreciate the net's views on
the following questions:
1) How well do the current crop of high-speed dial-up modems work over
   international voice circuits?  In particular, can they cope with satellite
   hops?
2) For anyone currently doing something similar, what protocol are you using
   and what sort of typical throughputs are you seeing?
3) I am aware that the Trailblazer+ supports uucp-g protocol internally, what
   other support for commonly used protocols (Kermit, UUCP, Zmodem) exists?

I apologize if this has been covered here recently (and I have read the
discussion relating to dial-up lines into/out of London).  Please reply by
e-mail, I will summarise if warranted.
