Re: Using your GS here!

[tws <adoyson@nccn.net>]

Jeff,


Your software ( Jeff Blakeney's IIgs POP3/SMTP e-mail client for
use with Marinetti)  sounds great!  Could you post screenshots to
comp.binaries.apple2?  Could you  tell us a little (or how
about alot :) about it?

Is it commercial software?  I'd be one of the first to buy it.  This is
something that I would use *every* day.  It is the top of my  "I wish my GS
would do this" list!


You mention a newsreader for the IIgs in your post too.  Could you tell us about
it?  There seems to be some developements in the IIgs/Telecommunications area
that nobody talks about.  I would really like to know more!
