http://linpac.sourceforge.net/doc/manual.txt
contains:
"...
8.3 Utilities for mail exchange

    LinPac contains some utilities for exchanging mail with the F6FBB 
BBS. ..."
IMHO this infers no ability to of 'linpac' to 'receive and store' 
messages/mail.

"...
8.4 Mail client

  This application allows full screen message editing and browsing. It
provides the frontend to mail exchange utilities. Mail client is started
by the :MAIL command. After the program is started the H key shows the
    operating instructions.   ..."

IMHO, this works with '8.3' to send/receive mail/messages with a
F6FBB packet BBS.

  'linpac' seems to be a 'terminal' emulation program and does not
contain inherent mail/message store/receive capability.

3s, Chuck
