Hmm.  Has anyone used the tools provided in Smail 3.1 to do the same
thing?  We are currently running that on our machines, but I haven't
had the time to play with the SMTP/Smail configuration.  For now we've
relied on using Smail to generate a uux call and send the mail via
Excelan's 'ud' daemon.  I expect though that we'll need to investigate
SMTP more in the future since our network is growing beyond just uucp
hosts.

If anyone has worked with this, please contact me via Email.  Thanks.

 -Bob
