PhoneSlip is a simple NEXTSTEP app which allows a telephone receptionist or other user to rapidly send simple mail messages to recipients of phone (or other) messages and to (optionally) log and print these messages.

The application displays "Pink Phone Slip" style form and an addressee list.
The application generates a normal SMTP E-mail message which may be sent to NeXTMail or non-NeXT addressees. The received message will look like:

	---------------PHONE MESSAGE--------------
	FROM: Mr.Jobs
	OF: NeXT, Inc.
	NUMBER: 555-5555

	TELEPHONED
	WILL CALL AGAIN
	Just Kidding!

	SIGNED: A. Receptionist
	---------------PHONE MESSAGE--------------

I developed PhoneSlip as an exercise but designed it to meet a local need for distribution of phone messages to a department which was dispersed throughout a fairly large building. We have used PhoneSlip for about 18 months and having had requests from some who have seen it I am now distributing it to the net.
