You can solve this problem really easily from the Mac side with a program
called:
Eudora. It is really good and works just like you want . On a PC, ... that is
another story....I have to make one up first.

News Service can also be done really easily on a Mac. I am writing this news
from My Mac using a program called theNews. It is shareware and a site license
really cheap.
less then US $800. or $25/copy. 

Both programs can be obtained from infomac at sumex or any infomac archive
locations

Have fun with the Macs stuff... and dont have nightmares with the PC stuff...
it will
show up eventually in the year 3001.
