Below is some information on OMNET which I have collected.
OMNET is a commercial network for oceanographers. It has
some kind of bulletin board, I believe, as well as electronic
mail facilities. The material below deals with how to send
mail from the Internet to OMNET. For more information on
OMNET, get in touch with the contact person.
