You will be up and running in less than a minute! I know from experience that it is indeed a real pain to configure Bobcat/Lynx manually. Automagically is the best way to go! For help on Pegasus Mail for DOS I would suggest you look into James David Chapman's website, http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~jchap/contents.htm. Download the Barebones DOS email system. This system may be used alone, or it may be used with Pegasus Mail for DOS serving as its front end. Instructions are included, and they seem easy to follow.
