If you have your own e-mail account at home or work, it might be awkward having two e-mail accounts. That means checking two accounts and, therefore, connecting and disconnecting your modem access. You can forward all myour Venus mail to your home provider account. Here's how:
At the Venus mail prompt, type SET FORWARD and the address where you want to receive your mail - this is the hard part. Intuitively, you'd probably type in the address as you would if you were sending mail to someone outside the Venus system. That's not quite right.
You type in the address as:
mx%"server name::username"
Here's an example:
MAIL> SET FORWARD mx%"mail.gte.net::jdangelo"
Obviously, you would use your login name and the name of your provider, assuming it is different from GTE.NET.
Now you would only have to check your GTE mail to get all your mail messages - regardless of where they were sent.
