#for our poor overworked netadmins!
---------- (My opinion)
The marsmail-02c is a ver hard work to improve the resources and the time on
the sessions with dos users, based on the marsmail-02 (thanxs a lot boys), but
with a lot of new features, hawever have the principal trouble on marsmail:
the user can use only one mail reader (pmail or pine), never both in a time.
New features:
a) easy of install (a very few steps)
b) reads mail in the netware natural mode
c) output mail in the natural CHARON mode
Changes:
a) The ohpostme go to the trash
b) the oh* scripts still in test (don't know if works)
Future: (the one or the scond, but not the two)
a) ask to PMAIL worktime to make a PMAIL that work with spool files
b) improve the mail read for read only the new mail for pmail
and return the undeleted mail to the spool (both readers)
