After I quit my job at the University, and started working full-time on my own software, I am in the unfortunate situation of having to pay for my E-mail use :-) What I would like to do is to read (and reply to) my mail from my own DOS computer, so I do not have to log into the Unix machine, thus reducing my connection charges. I have my computer hooked to the Unix machine over a serial line, but I could connect it to the University network as well. I know of several programs for doing this, some free, some shareware, and I assume there are some commercial programs as well, but I would like some recommendations - just send them to me directly, I will post a summary if there is any interest. The best solution would probably be just to get my own Unix box, but right now I am looking for a less expensive solution... -frisk
