The AppleII Email Suite consists of the following six ProDOS programs:
Emai//er is an email and usenet news software package for the Apple //e Enhanced or Apple IIgs. An Uthernet-II ethernet card is required for sending and receiving messages.
Emai//er is implemented as a number of ProDOS executables, each of which performs one distinct function. `EMAIL.SYSTEM` provides the main user interface, and invokes the other executables as needed. `EMAIL.SYSTEM` is automatically reloaded when the helper program completes its function.
- `POP65.SYSTEM` is a Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3) client for the Apple II with Uthernet-II card.
- `EMAIL.SYSTEM` is a simple user interface for reading and managing email. It works together with `POP65` and `SMTP65`.
- `EDIT.SYSTEM` is a simple screen editor, integrated with `EMAIL.SYSTEM`.
- `EDIT.SYSTEM` is a full screen editor, used for composing email and news messages. It may also be used as a general purpose ProDOS text file editor.
- `POP65.SYSTEM` is a Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3) client for the Apple II with Uthernet-II card. This is used to retrieving incoming email messages.
- `SMTP65.SYSTEM` is a Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP) client for the Apple II with Uthernet-II card. This is used for sending outgoing email messages.
- `NNTP65.SYSTEM` is a Network News Transport Protocol (NNTP) client for the Apple II with Uthernet-II card. This is used to retrieving Usenet news messages.
- `NNTP65UP.SYSTEM` is a Network News Transport Protocol (NNTP) client for the Apple II with Uthernet-II card. This is used for transmitting outgoing Usenet news messages.
- `ATTACHER.SYSTEM` is used for creating multi-part MIME messages with attached files.
- `SMTP65.SYSTEM` is a Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP) client for the Apple II with Uthernet-II card.
- `REBUILD.SYSTEM` is a utility for rebuilding mailbox databases, should they become corrupted. This can also be used for bulk import of messages.
- `DATE65.SYSTEM` is a Network Time Protocol (NTP) client which can be used for setting the system time and date if you do not have a real time clock.
