Greetings and happy holidays. After an evening's worth of effort, I finally got Louie Mamakos' SLIP software installed and working on my mono NeXTstation at home. Telnet, ftp, rlogin, and NewsGrazer are all happy. Mail however, is not. The SLIP system I use assigns me a different IP address each time dial in. This means that I need another solution for mail. I have several options to solve the mail problem, none of which I know much about. There's UUCP, POP, an app called MailManager, and I've just read that SLIP commander has a "retrieve mail" function. Any information on any of these alternative would be greatly appreciated. I'd even settle for getting pointed to the appropriate books, documentation files, etc. I'd prefer posted responses for obvious reasons, but email will work too. Thanks Mikael Behrens
