I am using a 3B2 running System V 3.2, and using smail for E-mail.

I noticed that /bin/mail doesn't call smail to process Internet
type addresses, and it doesn't handle them itself.

A lot of programs have /bin/mail hardcoded into them, which fails
when a domain type address is specified.

Is there anything I can do to /bin/mail, or is there a direct replacement
for it that will work properly?
