:-) Do you mean reading mail or setting up a mail server? For the former, the easiest is to use Mail inside of Acme. Not sure if this is the latest greatest way to do it, but this is how I've done it for the past four years and a bit. In your lib/profile you will want to start upas/fs . You can then open a mailbox on a remote IMAP server like this for example (this will use factotum to prompt for your password): echo 'open /imap/your.imap.server/your.username local.box.name' >/mail/fs/ctl And in Acme use "Mail local.box.name" to start the mail reader. > 2. How can I read newsgroups on plan9? Hmm, can't seem to get to the contrib stuff on sources just now, so here's how I do News for myself: http://www.tombob.com/plan9/ Robby
