- David,
-
- Thanks for the info, though I must tell you that the gentlemen to whom you
- have euphemistically referred to above did get the info to me first despite
- their claims of not supporting PCEudora 1.4. It has helped enormously with a
- timing out problem I was experiencing in our office with a 286 PC that I had
- upgraded using a plug in 486-DX upgrade chip.

- Subject: Final word on Windows/DOS setup for news/mail
-
- Hello there,
- I am the director of the Vodem project, a project trying to get a
- usenet news/internet mail feed via CATV off the ground. I have been
- lurking around for quite a while now and there seems to be a real need for
- a concise guide to setting up either a UUCP or a SLIP connection for a
- user under either DOS or Windows platforms. All I have seen is references
- to FTP sites and existing product doc. I think what is really needed is a
- guide to hooking up via UUCP or SLIP/PPP from start to finish.
- I will volunteer to build this FAQ/Cookbook with the help of all who
- read this newsgroup. If those of you who have internet links set up via
- Shareware/Freeware products only will share your experiences and setups
- with me, I'll compile the result into the DOS/Windows INterent cookbook
- FAQ. I have both UUCP and SLIP accounts available to me, so I can test
- everything you send.
- If you would like to help, send email to jbrown@speedway.net or
- jabrown@vodem.com or jabrown@shell.portal.com
