I found things in 765.

I forgot how integrated FTP and SMTP used to be with the system.  What 
with the ability to send to the users terminal and / or their mail file.

I don't think we'd ever see such integration like that today.  Though to 
be fair, we typically don't see multiple people interactively logged 
into the same system.  Save for maybe mainframes or some mid-range 
systems (AS/400).
