- Hi,
-
- My company is attempting to find a mail program that will allow us
- to connect our MacIntosh's that are *Not* on the ethernet to our unix
- machines Mail system (and hence to the outside world).
-
- We have several of the macs on the ethernet, and for these we use
- eudora with great success. Unfortunately, the other half of the
- building is not on the ethernet (they use normal appletalk).
-
- We do have Microsoft Mail for the Macintosh, Although I have not
- looked into it much, I suspect that it wont be able to grab mail from a
- Unix host.
-
- Is there any software available that will allow an ethernet-less
- macintosh to pick up mail via either snmp or pop from a unix host.
-
- Alternatively, Is there any software that will allow the unix machine
- to gateway mail to/from an appletalk network, and if so what type of
- software would read such gateway-ed mail on the macintosh.
-
- We have either SGI Indigos or SUN sparcstations as the unix hosts.
- The sun runs CAP, so any software which uses this would be great.
-
- Any replys at all are appreciated. I will summarize if there is interest.
-
- Thanks in advance,
-
- Bob.
