FTP does sell source, but our price is rather high for academic users
(although we have done business with several large academic sites).
Sorry to say, our inventory of hardware drivers represents enough of our
competitive advantage that we must value it highly.

We sell the executable package for $400 quantity 1, $175/copy for Site
Licenses for between 20 & 49 copies, less per copy for larger quantities.
Programming libraries (including sockets) are available for Microsoft C.
We have an academic discount, too.  Call us, or send us a USMail address
and we'll send out the price list, etc.

Thanks for your reply: I do not think we will purchase the source from
you in the immediate future because of our situation: we are a small 
off-campus organization with 10 pc's and a couple of vaxen which 
are used as mail-news machines mainly for the North Carolina State 
University System.

We are however, in the business of evaluating/recommending hardware and 
software to/for the 16 campuses of the state system - and to that end
we are very much interested in more information your products/prices.

So: We would be VERY much interested in receiving your price list and
additional information.
