Maybe I'm missing something here; if one has either webmail or POP3/SMTP email access, that means one has TCP/IP access to the Internet, right? If so, then one can usually get files directly, without the use of ACCMAIL methods. So why would such a person need or even want to use ACCMAIL? Since I first got a TCP/IP connection (then PPP dialup) several years ago, my few uses of ACCMAIL have been for rare and unusual reasons. I don't want to argue with anyone, I'm genuinely curious as to why someone with webmail or POP3/SMTP email access might have a need for ACCMAIL services. Maybe there's an angle I'm not aware of.
