Is there a mail/news package available for GNO? A#8.12: There is a rudimentary one called MuGS by Brian Tao.
a shell account (presumably on a UNIX box) for part of the software. The base MuGS package handles news articles that are spooled on the UNIX machine’s local disk. There is an NNTP (Net News Transfer Protocol) patch by Devin Reade that allows MuGS to work with an NNTP server. MuGS is available as described in its describe(1) entry (see Q#4.4). Because of a lack of TCP/IP there is no software for GNO v2.0.4 that allows a IIgs to connect to the ‘net via NNTP or SMTP. Jeff Markham provided the following suggestion: I’ve been using the gmail system, and I’ve come up with something that seems to work ok with gmail and sendmail. Create the following two files. The first is /bin/send: [gdr: The second and third lines should be a single line without the escaped newline. It has been printed here as is for clarity: #!/bin/gsh /bin/foreach x /var/spool/sendmail/out/* \ < /bin/send.dat > .null The second is /bin/send.
