[comp.sys.mac.comm] UUCP for the Macintosh

root@narwah.stgt.sub.org (Achim Bofinger) (11/28/90)

Hello,

I am searching for a UUCP package(mail and news) for the Mac. A few months ago, there 
was a posting from a developper of such a software, who was searching 
for a couple of Beta testers.
Does anyone know something about this package or something like this ?

With greetings (ab)

I don't know much about the product (I never recieved the copy I was supposed
to, hint hint).  But from what I have heard it is shipping and allows you
to make your Mac a UUCP node fairly easily.  There was an article in some
trade rag... I think UNIX Today had it, could be wrong though.  The company
name is ICE Corporation and you can reach them at time@ice.com I believe.

Sounds like a nice product.

The sources to UUCP for the Mac are on sumex and many other places (commercial
BBSs and private BBSs).  I was able to set it up w/o too much trouble.  Took
a few hours, but it did work...
