Pegasus Mail is a mail program | for Novell Netware. Pegasus Mail v2 uses Charon to provide full internet mail | facilities. Charon was written by Clarkson University. Pegasus Mail is by | David Harris of Otago University. The current version of Charon (3.01, I believe) is only a Pegasus Mail <=> SMTP gateway. However, the previous version (I forget the number) is an LPD/LPR gateway. Both versions are written by and available from Clarkson University (should be available on sun.soe.clarson.edu or grape.ecs.clarkson.edu, but my route to that part of the net seems to be down at the moment). The next version of Charon is supposed to provide both the SMTP _and_ LPD/LPR gateways in a single product. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark Medici/SysProg3 * RUCS/User Services * medici@elbereth.rutgers.edu -----------------------------------------------------------------------
