Thanks to all the people who have taken time to send me information about
their electronic mail setup.  They have been quite informative.  I think
though, a little backround needs to be given.


Here at Maryland, we're thinking of providing email access to anyone who
wants it (not just regular computer users).  For example, Joe Philosophy
would be able to send mail to Sherry Architecture, yet neither of them
are taking courses in which computers are accessed.

Has anyone else had experience with this?

What are the technical pitfalls to look out for?
What are the administrative pitfalls to step over?

Once again, thanks to the people who've already sent me replies,
I very much appreciate it.


			Joe Herman

P.S.  Even if this isn't your situation, any information dealing with a
      large mail user population would be helpful.
