=3E=3E          I remember that there was a documentation project going on=
 for
=3E=3E  FreeBSD  and
=3E=3E I=27d like know its status and  URL =2E  Hopefully there is a good i=
ndex =28I
=3E=3E consider this an
=3E=3E essential tool in books=29=2E
=3E
=3E On the FRONT PAGE of the FreeBSD=2Eorg website there is a big ole butto=
n with
=3E the word =22Documentation=22 on it=3F
=3E The link =28for the truely lazy=29 is =3A http=3A//www=2Efreebsd=2Eorg/=
docs=2Ehtml
=3E
=3E=3E  Another section I would like to see is one about internet
=3E=3E access and also the subsection about  email =2E  I want to be able t=
o access
=3E=3E my  juno email
=3E=3E account and see a list of the received emails =28with the name of th=
e sender=2C
=3E=3E the subject=2C
=3E=3E and date =26 time sent=2C possibly other data=29=2C be able to selec=
t emails to
=3E=3E read =28and to
=3E=3E delete them after they are read at the reader=27s discretion=29=2E=
  There is also
=3E=3E the flip side=2C
=3E=3E the ability to create emails=2C specify to whom they are to be sent=
=2C and send
=3E=3E them=2E
=3E=3E
=3E All of the above is accomplished using a Mail User Agent =28MUA=29
=3E application=2C=2E=2E=2E there are litterally thousands to choose from s=
o it is
=3E HIGHLY unlikely that any open source OS will include this in the manual=
=2E=2E=2E

Even this is in the Handbook
http=3A//www=2Efreebsd=2Eorg/doc/handbook/mail-agents=2Ehtml

=3E Install a few and decide for youreself what suits you best=2E
