Alex,

I'd like to comment on some of your comments...

My mail host is a VMS VAX, I am using mail to send mail and news to
read news. But while reading news, I can REPLY or FORWARD, and I can
start MAIL in parallel. This is the integration I want to see implemented
on the macintosh too. I dont want mail/news to be separate packages.

The problem with intermail and inbox is that they want to know about
all adresses in advance. The method to send a mail to Bill is to
select Bill out of a list of possible mail recipients. This excludes
the posiblility to specify Bill@MIT, unless you are connected to an
intermail server of MIT. Of course this may change in future versions
of this products (we are using 1.35).

Your posting stopped shortly after 4.2, if there was anything after that
please mail it to me, because I'd like to continue that discussion.

Joachim
