Thanks for asking, Bob.  The Dock! modem number is 510-676-5359.  He should set
his baud to at least 2400, tops 14.4 or 28.8 depending on the modem he
eventually enters ... 14.4 for now.

Internet e-mail?  No problem ... we move tons of it daily.  When you (he) logs
on, he will be asked for his name, i.e. richard hanson, or bob olken, etc.,
just a first and last name seperated by a single space.  Okay?

Once online, his local (on The Dock!) e-mail address is his name, just like it
is, here.  Now ... here's the magic.  His local e-mail address automatically
becomes his internet e-mail address as well, i.e. richard.hanson@pcld.com, or
bob.olken@pcld.com, etc.  Notice that the space seperating the first and last
names is replaced with a period.  Then, @pcld.com is appended to the
firstname.lastname character string.

One last point: KISS ...it's just e-mail!

If your firends name is Barthalemule S. Q. Le Beefcake, Jr., Ph.D., master of
the Q.E.2., and grand poophead of local 2270, tell him to swallow his pride and
use just:  Bart LeBeefcake

Hope this helps.         -Rick-
