We use the MAILMAN!GJC@MIT-MC hack also for Chaosnet Mail at MIT,
and some sites have hacked up CHAOSNET => DECNET => CHAOSNET => ARPNET
forwarding. The MAILMAN daemon implements mailing lists and forwarding.

On the other hand, the next release of NIL/EMACS has RMAIL, and sends
mail by writing a queue file to the SYS$MAIL directory. Probably
anyone with a reasonable programmable EMACS will want to do such a
thing.
