- WWIV FOR INTERNET Mail
- MOD & programs by The Blue Adept & Spud Muffin, Sysops of
- Split Infinity BBS, San Francisco, CA: NET 4552 / LINK 14552
-
- -The "we need money" speech...
-
- The MOD to WWIV is free, but the .EXE files below are 'beg-ware'. If you find
- that they work to your satisfaction, please keep in mind that we do have to
- keep ourselves in Pepsi and Safeway Microwave Popcorn, so if you care to
- give a little, and be able to receive direct e-mail announcements of updates
- in the future <and we *DO* plan on supporting this until we get it right. :) >
- then send us $5.00 to the address at the bottom of this file.
-
- -The "legal" stuff....
-
