- Introduction
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Welcome to SimpleMail an email program for your Amiga. The
- program and the usage is very similar to to YAM's (although YAM
- is actually much more powerful) but it has (or should get) some
- features which YAM doesn't offer. Note that this is really only
- an alpha version, so don't expect too much of it at this stage.
- It is really very limited. The source of SimpleMail is open and
- released under the GNU Public license. Look at the bottom how to
- obtain it.
