RunRev to create email kiosk under MacOSX

[Andre Garzia]

Jim,

you can do it, but to have a macintosh just for email is a little 
subusing the machine: :-)

you don't need applescript or shell, I don't think one can disable 
force quit, but at least for the email part you can check Shao Shan 
libSMTP and libEmail stacks.

Cheers
andre
