Hi Oliver,

Thanks - that should get me started building and playing with Contiki. I agree a 'proper' web proxy would be the best way to go, although my dirty hack has the advantage of working reasonably well without any client support.

I am thinking of writing a simple POP3/SMTP email program for ProDOS, but I am just in the planning / high-level design phase right now.

All the best,
Bobbi
