Greetings:

We are going to implement a mail transport agent on a NeXT, most likely,
and we are a University, whose enrollment changes by the quarter, or more
often.  The thing which would cinch our deal is a method to automate the
adding and deletion of users on a regular basis, perhaps through the use
of a text file to be read from.

Can this be done?  Is there another way to accomplish this goal?  This is
muy importante to us, and if anyone can give us an answer, we would be
most appreciative.

Thanks!
Joe
