The first thing that comes to mind for me, of the irex many useful features
is a built in file request processor. If one perfers to use Frontdoor or
Allfix built-in request processor, you can just plugin the correct command
line switches. Then irex will use whatever freq program when it receive a
netmail from a node with the frq flag in the kludge line. Irex pdf manual
explains it pretty darn good.. I admit that very few ever use it his days,
never the less it does come in handy for systems running a network or even
sending out password protected data via binkd or ftp. It can also do the
samething with email.
