UNIBASE is now operating a gateway link between the FrEdmail system and UUCP. FrEdmail is a distributed mail/conferencing system which operates on Apple II computers. It currently links approximately 75 schools across the U.S., with sites extending down as far as Argentina. Because it is school based, its content relates to the elementary and secondary school system. The system supports both private mail and echo mail similar to uucp mail and news. Addressing is done similar to the uucp mail method of addressing. Users from the uucp world who would like to establish contacts with people on the FrEdmail network can post directly to the main echo group on FrEdmail, and once contacts have been established, may communicate directly to points on the FrEdmail network. On previous occasions, Patt Harring has floated maps of CMS through comp.edu. A more recent map will be made available shortly. In the meantime, anyone wanting to establish links to classroom teachers on FrEdmail should address mail to the following: ...!tmsoft!mcl!unibase!sdsu!ideas Ideas is an echo group, and sdsu (San Diego State University) is the gateway link for Unibase. To send mail directly to someone on the network, use the following: ...!tmsoft!mcl!sdsu!bdodge Bernie Dodge is an Associate Professor at San Diego State, in the Educational Technology Department. He would look forward to hearing from users on uucp. If you have any questions regarding the gateway, please feel free to contact me directly.
