 SUBJECT:   Mail to Macs
I've written a script which performs mail transfer between a unix
machine and CE Software's QUICKMAIL.  We've been using it since
October and in general people like it.  There are still a few quirks,
however CE Software has been very helpful in working these out.

Currently the script works only via modem, however we plan to develop
means for using either a direct serial line or MacTCP to establish
the connection.  In addition we will be working to make the mail
handling more robust and easier to maintain for large groups.  Once
these are completed we will make the package available at little or
no cost.  I suspect everything but the TCP connection will be
available later this summer.

If you're interested in our work, let me know and I'll send you mail
when it's ready to be released.

We would be interested in looking at your scripts.

Thanks,
