Setting up a mail service:
First, insert user names. Each user needs a "short name"
used for System.SetUser, and a "long name" that is used
as a destination in sending mail. The postmaster is
inserted first. It will receive all mail addressed to unknown
users.
Users.Insert poma Postmaster
Users.Insert mf Franz
Users.Insert au User
Users.List
__________________________________
Then, start the servers. The server is given a name
in the NetServer.Start command:
NetServer.Start Server
MailServer.Start
The server can now be accessed remotely, if the net is
set up as described in the Net.Tool. To stop:
NetServer.Stop
MailServer.Stop
File servers can be write_protected:
NetServer.Protect
NetServer.Unprotect
__________________________________
Send mail by prefixing a text in a viewer with
and a list of registered recipients' "long names".
Access a mailbox by performing System.SetUser
(type short_username / password <return>) and
then executing Net.Mailbox <servername>.
