The AutoShare Documentation is the authentic introduction to setting up AutoShare as a list server, an auto-responder and a vacation service; it explains what these services are, what they can do for you and how you install them running AutoShare with EIMS (Eudora Internet Mail Server), a POP3 and SMTP mail server for the Macintosh. With the release of version 1.2.1, SIMS (Stalker Internet Mail Server) too may be used with AutoShare. The AutoShare Addendum generally describes the features and changes added to medium and minor versions of AutoShare (unless updated directly in the Documentation).

If you would like to get going as quickly as possible, I recommend that you first dive into the AutoShare Samples, which illustrate a simple configuration. If you are unsure of EIMS and the Macintosh Finder, please consult the documentation for these. Jason Snell's AutoShare QuickStart for version 1.0 covers the basics of the AutoShare configuration and easily puts you on the right track before you embark upon the extensive reading of the complete AutoShare Documentation.

The AutoShare Home Page (www.dnai.com/~meh/autoshare/ on the Internet) is a key page, listing references to various documents, addresses, servers and mailing lists. You may also want to take a look at the AutoShare FAQ, The AutoShare Flow, Lost In AutoShare and The AutoShare AppleScript Tutorial.
