I have a absolute ton of Epoc Software both Freeware/Shareware & Commercial for the Psion which these days we can consider Abandonware. I’m not sure what the rules are about sharing this sort of software. If someone could please advise on this so I don’t upset anyone. Thank You.

In the forum rules (link in the header above) rule #2 covers it. The tl;dr is that "abandonware" chatter is considered piracy chatter. From my brief time poking around here, it seems like there's been enough precedent set with regard to legal threats and copyright issues that they'd just rather not risk inviting lawyers in and took a specific stance on it.

If it's easy to do, could you post a list of the actual commercial software that you consider abandonware? Or PM me.
