   -> Cool.  What would I need to do to get my hands on a fully functional   
   -> ViaUUCP?  Also, who developed WildMail, et al?   
      
   First and foremost, I need a valid email address so I can send it to   
   you.  I don't remember if I took the keys out of ViaUUCP!, but if not, I   
   can just make you one.   
      
   As for Wildcat!, Derek Koopowitz wrote v1-3 of Wildmail! and for v3   
   Eric Cozzi wrote the configuration/utility programs (there was no   
   configuration program for earlier versions).   
      
   For Wildmail! v4, I rewrote everything from scratch. Nothing could be   
   reused because WC4 had an all new message database structure/design.   
   Wildmail! v4 was the first decent sized program I had ever written with   
   WMINFO being my first mid-size one.   
      
   Of course, ViaMAIL! was all me.  It's a huge program, nearly twice the   
   size of Wildcat! (not counting all the ancillary ones).   
      
   Regards,
