from Matt Parker matt@mpcontracting.co.uk contains these words:
Replying to myself. I know that's bad form. But from the Zetnet site about ZIMACS you see this:-
"The Zetnet Information Management And Control System is a custom written piece of Windows® software which allows the off-line creation and reading of both e-mail and newsgroup articles. It also uses Zetnet's proprietary mail delivery system ZetMail. This uses the TCP/IP protocol to send the pre-packed mail and news packets to you quickly and allows you to process the incoming information when you disconnect from the system."
The bit about a proprietary mail delivery system shows just how standards compliant you can expect the software to be.
What has the delivery system got to do with the software?
How do I know? It's proprietary. Is it reformatting the messages to be sent down this proprietary protocol and munging them? No one can tell if we can't see the source.
