I installed Elm for our Apollo network and had no trouble at all.  We are
currently running it under both SR9.7 and SR10.  There was absolutely no
porting needed.  I got the source (Elm 2.3) directly from comp.sources.unix
when it was posted there last June.  I believe it's also available from some
anonymous ftp sites.  As for the effort, there was really very little
involved in the initial set-up.  I've done all my Elm work from sys5 rather
than bsd, so your mileage may vary if you're a bsd site.

For further information, there is a newsgroup dedicated to Elm
(comp.mail.elm).  I'm sure you could find information on ftp sites from
there.

Good luck!
