- The user is in Africa with no email. Though we could have him dial into
- our server to read/send mail, the long distance charges make it
- prohibitive. Since it is much less expensive for the University to call
- Africa than for Africa to call the University, one of the staff here will
- use Kermit to transmit the file to Africa once a week. With that in
- mind, it would be a better solution if one could dump the entire mailbox
- to a file rather than save each message to multiple files, and then append
- them together.
-
- Thanks for your thoughts though.
