Still idly thinking on this one. Richard presumeably has
achieved similar.
If mail / bulls can be smtp'd to a NOS box or NOS running on
the linux cluster box , NOS allows ( from memory ) LZW
compression. Once compressed they could be NOS forwarded to
a NOS box at the other end for decompression , then
delivered to the Spider system in the same way a message
from a BBS would. That's my thoughts anyway.. Compression /
decompression within Spider would be a huge advantage
though.
