If I had $335 to spare, I'd be on my phone ordering Lauren
Weinstein's UULINK package -- hoping that it will really do all
his fact sheet (posted recently to net.micro.pc) promises. It 
sounds great. Here's a summary:

   o	Full UUCP implementation under MS-DOS
   o	Mail and Netnews Generation/Handling
	(supports both UUCP and Internet formats)
   o	Scheduler for both UUCP/Mail and local tasks
   o	Remote Dial-in access to the PC

Call Lauren at (213) 390-3920.
