Abstract: The MAIL Package consists of four programs which provide
all the facilities necessary to create and maintain a
sophisticated "postal" system for all RSTS/E users.
To make use of the system, a user must first register by
entering his name into a MAIL user data file ledger.
This is done only once.  From then on, the user's name
is associated with his account number and he is allowed
to send and receive mail.  Mail bearing the sender's
indentification is sent directly into the recipient's
account.
 
Notes: Certain features necessary for proper operation of the
programs are not implemented in previous versions of
RSTS.  The program's data files require a minimum of 250
blocks, this figure could expand to 400 blocks if all
possible system accounts are occupied by only one
individual.
