KRISTOFFERSON@BIONET-20.ARPA (06/01/88)
From: David Kristofferson <Kristofferson@BIONET-20.ARPA>
The European Molecular Biology laboratory has enhanced their database
mail server so that it should now be accessible to BIONET users. I
have just sent off a test message using the following procedure.
Instructions for using this server to retrieve the latest sequence
data from the EMBL by electronic mail are contained in message 15 on
the EMBL-DATABANK bboard. The means to read this message and specific
instructions for access via the BIONET MM mail program follow. BIONET
users can subscribe to the EMBL-DATABANK bboard (i.e., see all new
messages at login) by issuing the command DO EMBL-DATABANK after the @
prompt.
Sincerely,
Dave Kristofferson
