- A while back, someone mentioned using MAIL as the transport medium
- for IP. I think the reason was to have a tcp connection through a
- network so firewalled that only SMTP connections would get through . .
-
- Anyway, I have a similar desire. Except I'll be using either UDP or
- TCP packets between two sites. (I can call into one site but not with slip,
- the second site is on a distant network that I cannot call locally, but
- that I wish to access as though directly connected . . .)
-
- Would ANYONE with suggestions with existing code to do this or something
- similar, please contact me. (RS6000 code prefered . ... [cuz I'm lazy])
