Stang,

The question was asked by a member of a "live-a-board" mailing list (people that live on their boats). Although this particular member has Internet access, he does not have or use an e-mail program such as outlook or outlook express.

Many of the members of the "live-a-board" mailing list live and travel full time on their boats and use "Pocket Mail" to keep in touch. They often use a pay phone to download their e-mail, then read the e-mail offline. These users would like to have postings made on the "rec.boats.cruising" newsgroup sent to their inbox so they can read them when they download their email. Any ideas on how they might do this?

B.K.
