Hi Arnould In principle soQL provides a TCP/IP stack which can be used by all the Internet applications. I think FTP would be the easiest to get going IIRC Jonathan Hudson did a port to uQLx which could be ported to soQL. If these types of applications were ported to soQL its primitive address resolution would have to be replaced (or augmented) with DNS so that one could resolve internet addresses on the fly. With email you only need two addresses i.e. those of your SMTP, and POP3 servers.
