Try splicer.cba.hawaii.edu or sun.soe.clarkson.edu.

As you may be aware, there are several versions of Charon.  It originated
as a Unix-NetWare print spooler, but has been modified to serve as a gateway
for David Harris' Pegasus Mail program.  Unfortunately, I believe I am 
correct in stating that the latest version of Charon, which works well
as an SMTP Gateway with Pegasus, does not work for the function you need.
You'll need an older version.

Sorry I don't have the details with respect to version numbers.  Perhaps
someone else can fill in the details.
