	We have quite a few researchers here that use Telenet or 
Omnet services.  They are satisfied with the service except for
one major problem.  Each individual has to poll his or her own mail
box one or more times a day.  At our facility that means over a hundred
calls a day.
	Has anyone written a program that will make just a few calls
a day and collect an entire institutions mail and then distribute it
via Unix mail.  And while we're at it why can't we just send mail to 
user@telenet instead of logging on and interactively typing a Telenet
message.  Has anyone implamented a Telenet gateway?
