 When running in Linux/macOS keep in mind that by default the operating system will not let a service bind to a port less than 1025 unless it is a  ROOT user (in Linux) and NOT AT ALL in MacOS. In Linux, MIS has the ability to switch from root back to whatever the user and group is that owns the executable AFTER it binds to the ports it needs for the server.  So in Linux you can simply do a:
-  sudo ./mis
+  sudo ./mis server
 Note: This will **not** run MIS as root.  It will only use root to immediately bind the ports and then it will switch to the user who owns the executable.

 === MIS POLL ===
-Since Mystic 1.12 A47 the MIS offers a POLL function/switch. This replaces the previously used FIDOPOLL binary that was retired after Mystic 1.12 A46. The POLL switch enables the server to send and receive echomail and netmail packets to configured EchoMail Nodes. There are three polling options than can be configured for EchoMail nodes - BINKP, FTP, or Directory-based transmission.
