  I have been happily accessing email via my .gov account for many
years, but since I have recently retired, I am about to lose this
text-based access.

  I have a commercial account, but it relies on NETSCAPE, which
frequently bombs out on me.

  Is there ANY email provider out there which allows me to just
dial up via good old Kermit?  If it matters, I live in Maryland.

Thanks, I hope.
