Description: First public Release - EMS is able to handle Fido and already in
some parts UUCP. 

  The purpose of EMS is made clear by the meaning of its name:  to    
manage in an easy and uniform way an Electronic Mail System.  The word 
"Mail", here, has a wider meaning than that of "Messages", since it als
includes files, much the same way conventional mail also dispatches    
parcels.                                                               
                                                                     
   In an uniform way, I said.  In fact, unlike other products, EMS can 
be used with FIDONET technology networks AND with USENET-kind network, 
with the same kind of interaction.  The software takes on itself all   
the work required to overcome the differences between different        
networks.                                                            
                                                                      
   EMS is not a single, huge executable file, but rather a set of      
modules, configured as run-time libraries, each dealing with a        
different task.  The whole thing only runs with Kickstart 2.0 or newer:
it's both a choice (Kick 2.0 is a major step onwards if compared with  
earlier versions of the O.S), and a necessity, since BOOPSI only comes 
with the new operating system.
