Real simple question: can I share /usr/spool/mail between a bunch of
machines on the Token Ring?  All machines are running SR 10.1 with BSD
4.3 installed.  The mail system is sendmail.  Can one machine be a mail
server and everyone else just have symbolic links from /usr/spool/mail
to //server/usr/spool/mail?  This would allow everyone to read mail
from any machine in the network, right?  Are there any caveats?
