I gave up on using Compuserve, Bix and Delphi cause I  hated the user
i/f and the slow response time.  (I use notes here in USENET land).  

I would have continued to use  these other  services if  I could have
created an  automated mechanism  where my  Unix system  could call up
Compuserve,  login  as  me,  and  then  effectivly read  my mail from
compuserve and queue it up into my unix mail,  and then  read the new
entries in the areas of interest I may have preselected (like MAUG or
whatever).  

Then at my convienience I could preuse what's  new via  the Notes i/f
on my unix machine.  Any responses  I make  would then  be batched to
the Compuserve system that nite.  

The services would still make money and I could  interact with things
in a way I like on my unix machine.
