Mailhost bps go

A blast from the past!

mailhost bps go is a command that was commonly used in the early days of email, particularly in the 1980s and 1990s.

Here's what it does:

• mailhost: This is a command that sends an email message to a mail host, which is a server that handles email delivery.
• bps: This stands for "bytes per second", which is a measure of the speed of data transfer. In this context, it's likely being used to specify the maximum amount of data that can be sent in a single packet.
• go: This is a command to initiate the email transmission.

When you type mailhost bps go, you're essentially telling the email client to send an email message to a mail host, using a specific maximum data transfer rate (bps) and initiating the transmission.

In the old days, this command was often used to send large files or attachments over email, as it allowed the sender to control the speed of the transmission to prevent overwhelming the recipient's email server.

Of course, with the advent of modern email clients and faster internet connections, this command is no longer commonly used. But it's still a fun piece of nostalgia for those who remember the early days of email!
