 TA> Can someone please give me a little advice regarding the acquisition of a

If you are in the UK then yes, you can send your info this way.

Ultimately you will likely be connecting directly to your NC and getting netmail from there directly.

When you send your app it would be a good idea to include your email address so you can communicate while your node is being setup and once that is done you'll be good to go.

Once you have a node setup you can connect with the node or nodes of your choosing to send/recieve mail and files.
