I use UNIX at work and have learned to rely on EMACs for nearly everything there. I have a Macintosh at home and have started using Andrew Choi's fine port of this text editor in place of my over-rated, over-priced word-processors for nearly everything. Thanks, Andrew!
Unfortunately, I can't seem to figure out how one would go about setting up news and mail. At work all I have to do is type in "M-x gnus" and "M-x mh-warp" (for rnmail) and I'm there. I read through what it said on Andrew's site about scripts that call "Eudora Lite" and I couldn't find them. Moreover, It looks like Eudora Lite isn't even available any more. They are giving away 4.3 for free. So I wonder what I need to modify to make EMACS access my mail server and also how to modify his scripts to use regular Eudora Pro instead of Eudora Lite?
Additionally, is there any word on the W3 browser being compatible with Andrew's port?

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
There is some information on how to set up E-mail in the FAQ file. If you
have questions about that, please let me know. The definitions of functions
for sending and receiving E-mail are in lisp/term/mac-win.el. If you
cannot get Eudora Lite, please try changing the name of the application in
the three lines in that file that says:
"tell application \"Eudora Light\"\r"
to the name of the new Eudora application. Hopefully it understands
the same AppleScript commands and will work.
Gnus does not work currently and it is a little hard to get it to work
(because both asynchronous subprocesses and network support need to
be implemented). W3 is probably equally hard.
