INetUtils 1.4 -- December 9, 1994

INetUtils is a series of programs designed to allow an Amiga running AS225r2
software (i.e., socket.library capable) or AmiTCP 2.2 (or above) to interact
and operate as fully functioning members of an IP network,  including the
global InterNet.

This version of INetUtils is freely distributable. A more fully featured
commercial version is also available.

The utility programs consist of:

	SMTPd	    : an SMTP daemon
	SMTPpost    : an SMTP posting program
	SMTPExpand  : an SMTP aliases expanding program
	NNTPpost    : an NNTP posting program
	NNTPXfer    : an NNTP article transfer program
	newgroup    : a maintenance program for use with NNTP
	GetActive   : an NNTP active file transfer program
	AmiPOP	    : a POP message handler
	Sabot	    : A newmail activity program

The following man pages are included:

	SMTPd.man
	SMTPpost.man
	SMTPExpand.man
	NNTPpost.man
	NNTPxfer.man
	GetActive.man

and describe the operation of each program.

To install INetUtils, see the document named INSTALL included in this
archive.

For basic help in getting SMTPd running, the following script is also
included:

	StartSMTPd

which is heavily commented.

AmiPOP and Sabot were developed by Scott Ellis (sellis@ucssun1.sdsu.edu)
and all communication regarding them should be directed to him. Separate
documentation regarding them is included in the AmiPOP and Sabot archives.

To properly utilize the NNTP capability requires an NNTP aware newsreader
and a mailreader. The 'G' package is presented to meet this need.

GRn is Gadtools Read News, which can properly read and post with articles
via NNTP directly or read with the local directory setup by NNTPXfer, and
post directly using NNTPpost. Documentation is available in AmigaGuide
format (GRn.guide). Both freeware and commercial versions are available.

GMail, Gadtools Mail, is available as a commercial package.

AmigaELM and the DMail from AmigaUUCP are quite satisfactory for reading mail.
