Cory you'll love this one, it originally ran on only OS/2. If you
thought working with the other PC operating systems was a pest and a

I know. ;)
Out of a group of friends, I was the only one to get TCP/IP working on OS/2.
What is it with me and getting TCP/IP working on esoteric OSes?

OfficeVision, or PROFS I think it was called. I actually could be

that used it extensively. Even had an email gateway to the Internet.
(which was a rather big deal back then) I think it ran on VM? Would
love to find a clone or rewrite (non-licensed) that ran on MVS 3.8J. :)
I've heard very good things about PROFS off-and-on over the years. I
would love to see it.

Apologies if this is too off-topic.

MIM should be stable now, and with an improved TCP/IP, in case anyone
ever notice...
I'm actually hoping to run your RSX IP stack at some point. I just
got another PDP-11/24 recently...Will RSX-11M/Plus run on a machine
without split I/D space?

Hum. That is the mailer that *is* installed on MIM. Maybe you haven't set your terminal?
Ah a SET TERM/INQ fixed it. When you get a chance, I'd love an account, never had one on an RSX box before :)
I'll take care of it during the weekend.

Yep. The reason is that I'm rewriting my timer handling in my TCP/IP stack right now, so MIM is not that stable. :-)
Ah shame, I just added a function to my Pyffle conferencing software that uses the webpage to look up HECnet nodes..
Any idea when it'll be stable again? :)
Hopefully within an hour or so.
Actually it seems to work now. Shame it doesn't render that well in Lynx (not a criticism, nothing renders well in Lynx) so might write a bit of Python to pull the nodedb down and query it, display the results in a bit more user-friendly text format.
You know, I could render it differently if you have something like Lynx, if I only know what you'd like to get it as... The output from that page is rather simple right now.
I'm pretty much just letting the liternal output from DTR come through.

Yeah. Right now I'm trying to figure out why the retransmit timer don't
seem to work as it should. Most of the time it isn't needed, so it
mostly works fine. But I'm trying the odd bad behaviors...
MIM can go down on short notice right now, as I'm mucking in the kernel...

BTW what happened to the old Mail-11 client on MIM - I really liked the interface on it..
I actually have two mail clients on MIM, even though only one is normally installed. Which one was it you liked? The very plain and simple command line thing, or the rather screen oriented fancy one?
