 Well shouting was deminished by the poor quality of the copy, the person who
 had to take action, got.

 The project I did, started with a box, that was connected to a telex line,
 that box converter the message to ASCII RS232. or directly into EBCDIC and
 delivered at a virtual reader in VM/CMS. The messages were in IATA format with
 some additions to denile recipients.

 My software adapted the messages to PROFS and decided, wich PROFS users
 should receive the Telex messages.

 There was also a part that worked the otherway around. I.e from PROFS to
 telex. It was quite fun to build, especially as the addressing information
 of incominf telexes was typed by humans and delivery should be fail safe.

 Ofcourse the system became useless, when real e-mail became available.

 The project had a desissive influence on the work I did during the following
 years.
