There are two ways that you could go:
1)	Use MacTCP over a dial-up line with AppleTalk Remote Access.
2)	Configure the modem Script in 'STR#' 2400 and 2600.

Once you try the ARA (first option) you'll never want to play with ResEdit.  I
have tested Eudora with this method and also NCSA Telnet 2.4.02 and other 
MacTCP programs.  The one very good thing about using the ARA is that not only
can you check your mail, but you can have multiple telnet connections open
as well, and still have access to all of the network services (i.e. Appleshare
servers, laser printers, ...).


Now if you really want to use ResEdit, send me some mail and I'll show you
how to configure the string resources.  If you want more info on the ARA,
you can send me mail also.
