If you want to test this first version you have to enter the IP-address in the file smtp.ini and to create a directory e.g. ram:mailbox/site-admin. If yoo then establish a connection to an email program just like Thunderbird and send an eMail to site-admin@[IP-address of the server] the email is saved in the created directory.

Individual Computers announces new scandoubler "Indivision AGA"
Press release: During the 80s, it was common use to build computers in a way that they can output their picture on a TV set. This was done in order to reduce the overall system cost for the user. TV sets work with lower frequencies compared to today's monitors, therefore the picture flickers. A flickerfixer converts the signal in a way that a modern VGA monitor or TFT-display can be used. The name flickerfixer was mainly created because the problem of a flickering picture is solved.
