I don't have it. I think it was licensed software from Penn State.
I don't remember a lot of details. It gave a similar experience
to that on IBM systems; as your mail travelled point to point you
got a message printed on your terminal as to what node it was going through.
(Or something like that.)

There was also a facility similar to write(1) that let you chat with
someone on a remote BITNET site.

Overall, it did work.
