I've been looking for an alternate mailer for a group of SCO Xenix systems
that I manage.  Several people in this group have mentioned running
Elm and smail on their Xenix machines.  As all of my machines are 386's
with TCP/IP connections I have become interested in the possibility of
acquiring sources for this software and trying to bring them up.

I am a novice user when it comes to network mail management.  I have
configured the Xenix machines for Inter-Xenix mail using UUCP over the
TCP/IP connection.  I do understand UUCP fairly well. I have never seen
Elm. I have heard about smail. *Please*, enlighten me.

What I am interested in is a fairly intelligent mailer that will allow me to
bridge over to the rest of the net without resorting back to UUCP.  Almost
every machine on campus is on the local net.  

Oh, the systems are 386's; SCO XENIX 2.2.3; Excelan Ethernet Interfaces using
the EXOS drivers; Latest Greatest Development System.

If you could point me in the right direction as far as sources go I would
appreciate it.  Whenever I ask anyone around here for something they say,
"Well, I think I got it from XXX, but the copy I've got is too hacked up
for you to even try." 

Please E-Mail, I will summarize for those interested.
