[NTLK] Getting email working on MP2100 using SimpleMail

[Dan]

While I agree MailV is better than Simple Mail on several levels, if memory serves there is one advantage with Simple Mail: it works with 1x0 newtons such as 130.  Again if I remember right, the heap requirements for MailV are too much for a 1x0 Newton.  And Simple Mail might be too much even for a 120 after you add the Internet stack.  Been a while since I have tried, so again I might be mistaken.

It is about $18 a month (and is also a web portal); I have been availing myself of its services since 1999, when it was much cheaper and also known as MindSpring. Last I heard, Marisa’s is free to use.
