The machine you have in mind is not mentioned, so I will stay generic.

Kermit is available for a variety of micros, as are versions of a comm
program called MINITEL.  Specific versions for the DEC Rainbow (DECMINI),
IBM PC (IBMMINI), Sanyo (SYOMINI) all exist in the public domain.  If you
are interested in unattended, automatic file transfers, than you should
look into using FIDO/FIDONET.  This will allow your PCs to transferr messages
and files, using a variety of protocols, on a scheduled basis.  FIDO/FIDONET
is also public domain, and available from a variety of BBS around the country.
