I came across a program called srialpop from rudi van houten
that steve dorner also hacked on at ncsa, that allows one to 
log on with a standard serial based terminal program interface
to a host under a limited function shell that only accepts
a command to telnet to the pop server port. I'm trying to use
this program with the nupop pop client from northwestern university,
although I will eventually want to get mac users around here to use
eudora with it as well.

Right now I can log into the host, but it hangs at the point of
talking to the srialpop program.

Any suggestions appreciated
