- I can't recall a mail program which couldn't be configured to work with
- Multilink. After all, the mail programs usually don't have any networking
- code in them, separate programs are used for both receiving and sending
- mail. For sending mail with Multilink you could get the SMTPPost program
- found in the INetUtils archive on Aminet. With Multilink incoming mail is
- stored on the unix host --- you don't even have a IP address yourself.
- Use AmiPOP to get the mail if you need to. A POP3 daemon should be
- installed on the unix host then.
