This option will access whatever mailer you have linked to the name 'mail' in your path.

By default this will be 'elm' which is a user friendly mailer. Getting a bit dated now but does work well. The User Guide covers the basics.

For details on using E-Mail from within Premvet 5 refer to the later section.

There are more and more application packages getting used on the system and some are so obscure that they will not be added to the existing menu system.

SCO SHell is a powerful front end that allows you to configure the desktop to suit your needs. In addition to the applications it can be used to Edit file, copy and move documents, maintain appointments.

This can also be set as the start-up screen to allow users to select other applications on logging in.
