I've fallen a bit out of touch with the PC networking area lately, so let me ask everyone at large: Is there a public-domain package that would allow one to send and receive SMTP mail from the PC? I understand receiving would be a problem for someonw who runs WordPerfect all day, so alternately, is there a public-domain POP client for the PC (preferably one with a Unix end that I could set up here as well :) Thanks in advance.

You should get PMAIL21A.ZIP and CHARON31.ZIP. This is a fantastic mailer
created by David Harris and a great SMTP gateway for it created by Brad
Clements. This is a novell-specific mailer. Its available from mibsrv
(130.160.20.80) in the directory pub/network-pc/pegasus. If you do not
have a copy of PKZIP v110, you can get the file pub/pkz110eu.exe, run it
and then extract the other files.
=>Thanks in advance.

You got that a little transposed.
$ host boombox.micro.umn.edu
boombox.micro.umn.edu has address 128.101.95.95
boombox.micro.umn.edu mail is handled by boombox.micro.umn.edupaul@k9.hawkesbury.uws.EDU.AU (Paul Hardaker) (05/30/91)
