MacPost 1.0b2 available!
========================
MacPost is an electronic mail system for the Apple Macintosh. It is
developed by Lund University Computing Center as a Lund-Apple Joint
Project (European University Consortium). MacPost is available via
anonymous ftp at no cost.
MacPost gives Mac users access to internet mail directly from the
desktop. The client is very easy to use, and the server should be
relatively easy to setup for anyone somewhat experienced with Macs,
AppleTalk, tcp/ip, and e-mail.
We are now happy to announce version 1.0b2 of MacPost. It is now
available via anon ftp from pollux.lu.se (130.235.132.89). We will
send it to sumex@stanford as well.
Thanks a lot for your suggestions and bug reports. We have fixed all
known bugs (at least, that's what we think), and added some minor
features and shortcuts. Also thanks for your suggestions about the
language (a special thanks to Bruce A. Carter).
Bug fixes and new features are described in Release Notes documents.
The Server Install document is updated with new info. The User Docs
are available, but currently only in Swedish.
Please continue to report bugs to the mailing list
(macpost@ldc.lu.se).
For more info, please ftp the README file from pollux. If you can't
get it by ftp, send a mail to me, and I'll forward the README file
to you. The README file for 1.0b1 was published in Info-Mac Digest
#139, so thats another way to obtain it. (The diffs between the
README files for 1.0b1 and 1.0b2 are very minor).
Thanks for your support!
