AM requires OS 2.04 (KS 37.175) Please note that AM V1.19beta is still beta! Do not use it unless you are able to read C-Code and familiar with some internals of AmigaUUCP(+). Wait for the first final release that will come out really soon now! For installation see file am.doc (section "Installation"). Hints for use in QUICK-GUIDE, full documentation in am.texinfo (ok, could be more, but better than nothing... :-) If you find the program useful, feel free to make contributions to the author (suggest $10) Remember to do a "makecontents" for each user when updating to a new version of AM To display multimedia mail, AM uses parts of the metamail package (metamail, richtext and ezview).
