There is about to be a way to get an Internet mail address "free", or
so it seems.

The DEC Users Society (DECUS) runs a BBS called DECUSERVE, that
currently has a $65/year fee, and is about to have a 56kb Internet
connection installed.

The interesting thing is that the Decus leadership are in the process
of lowering the $65/year to $0/year. Decus membership IS required, but
costs nothing. There are "Cannons of Conduct" that must be read and
signed.

Call DECUS @ 1.508.480.3635 (they are moving soon, this should work
for a while) for info on DECUS.
