You are mistaken.  GatorMail-M and GatorMail-Q run on the Mail server, not the
GatorBox.  I'm pretty sure that a LocalTalk server should be able to talk to
a SMTP host.  I'm definately sure that a EtherTalk server can talk to a 
SMTP host because the TCP/IP stack is implemented locally, not on the GatorBox.
