Dan,

Last week I sent a message to the pcip mailing list about smtp and pop2
clients for cmu/mit pcip.  I presume you read it, but in case you haven't,
I'm appending that message to the bottom of this one.  Feel free to add
our code to your distribution.  I plan on keeping them available for
anonymous ftp from one of our machines, but adding it also to your
distribution makes a lot of sense.

The 2 tar files are about 100K total... pretty small.

As a side note, I think what you're doing is great, trying to maintain a
central release point for mods and additions to the cmu pcip code.  A lot
of rogue pcip programmers have done neat things to pcip, but since Drew
Perkins backed out of maintaining pcip it's been an anarchy almost.

Greetings.

"smtp.tar" and "pop2.tar" are available via anonymous ftp from the
directory "pub" on Venera.ISI.Edu (128.9.0.32), a BSD 4.3 Unix host.
Ftp in binary mode, place the tar files under your "srccmd" directory,
and untar them.

The makefiles are in the same format as the makefiles in the CMU pcip
distribution (e.g., "smtp.3d" is the makefile for smtp, for Microsoft C
version 3.0, with DEBUG #defined and "smtp.3n" is the same, expect that
DEBUG is not defined) and require Microsoft's MAKE utility.

Please be warned that I have only been using these 2 programs compiled
under Microsoft C version 3.0, for the 3Com 3C501 Ethernet controller,
and so I have no idea how well they will work for other versions of
Microsoft C or the other ethernet cards that CMU pcip currently supports.

The smtp code was evidently developed at MIT during John Romkey's years
there, and so we've preserved MIT's copyright notice on it.  The
smtp doc comes from MIT.  However, Dale Chase here at ISI did a lot of
modifications to the code and he (not MIT) wrote the pop2 program.
There is no documentation for the pop2 program, but the source code should
be pretty much self-explanatory.

Enjoy!
