Web Browser as Sendmail Tool
By Thomas Henden

Dear Jody!

For about a week now, our mail server has been out of order, and all
mail to me has probably been returned.

Please keep me on the list, hopyfully the server will be up again
soon.  I'll send a note as soon as I'm online again, and ask for the
digests that I didn't get.  If possible, keep the digests for the last
week, so it can be sent to me afterwards, when possible again.

In this connection, I will give the members of the list a tip, although
it isn't mechanical music related.

If you ever get trouble with your mailserver, you may still be able to
send mail via your webserver, if this still works.  Just find a
homepage (e.g. your own) where there is a link to send mail.  Click this
link, and replace the destination address with the one You want.  You
also have to add your own e-mail address under "preferences" in the
options menu (Netscape).

This should work with other netbrowsers too...

It could be vice to tell the receiver of the mail, that Your mailserver
is down just now, avoiding confusion whether your mail address is
correct or not... ;-)

Sincerely Thomas Henden, Norway.
