My father recently signed up for Prodigy and is thrilled to the gills
about being able to send me e-mail.  Unfortunatly for him, as I've
recently discovered, Prodigy isn't connected to Internet.  I even called
1-800-PRODIGY to get it "from the horse's mouth" and the nice lady said
she was unaware of any plans to provide Internet access.

So my curiosity's been piqued.  Are there other ways for computer
illiterates (like Dad) to send and receive e-mail?  Does anyone out there
use MCI-Mail?  How is it?  Are there other such services?  I'm more
inclined to point him towards a commercial service rather than a BBS for
reliability.

I suppose if Prodigy would get it's act together and provide Internet
access, that would solve the problem.  So far it's only a rumor and
possibly a long way from reality.

Thanks for your input...
