MacIP has two meanings in the Macintosh TCP/IP community.  First it is the 
name of a protocol used to encalsulate AppleTalk services in IP datagrams 
and second it is short hand for a software package availble from Stanford 
University that provides user interfaces to POP3 mail, Telnet, finger, 
whois and FTP.   This software package is availabel only to degree 
granting institutions.  Commercial packages that provide the same and in 
some cases more functionality are available from a variety of sources.
