-- Mail Check Version
-- Requires:
-- Eudora 1.5.1 or later (Copyright QUALCOMM Incorporated)
-- PPPop 1.4.1 or later

-- Modified by Rob Friefeld <mailto:friefeld@deltanet.com> 8/3/96
-- The PPP driver should be set to quiet mode for unattended operation.
-- Recommended to use Okey-Dokey or another utility to answer dialogs automatically
