SCEF0003@WSUVM1.CSC.WSU.EDU ("James N. Petersen") (11/07/90)
I recently sent the following note to the only person at Wollongong whom I have seen respond to questions on this list. However, I have not received a response from him, although it has been more than a week since I sent the question (perhaps this is telling me something about Wollongong?) Anyhow, has anyone had any experience using these product combinations? Original message follows (edited somewhat to delete names): ======================================================================== 15 Date: Thu, 01 Nov 90 09:22:33 PLT From: "James N. Petersen" <SCEF0003@WSUVM1> Subject: Mail packages to use with Win/TCP & Pathway Client NFS for DOS I am planning on purchasing the above packages, but have noted that they have very poor mail handling facilities. It appears that they can only originate mail, but not do things like reply to incomming messages, etc. Your sales person suggested cc:mail. Has this product been tested and known to work with your products? The people at cc:mail said they thought it only worked with FTP software's product. Hope to hear from you soon. Jim

For that matter, you can also use Al Marshall's public domain cc:Mail to SMTP gateway. enjoy, leo j mclaughlin iii The Wollongong Group ljm@twg.com
