I think that you misunderstood my message.  I am *not* looking for a site
to forward our mail to MCI Mail.  What I am looking for is software (and a
sendmail configuration) that will allow our site to send and receive messages
from MCI Mail via normal dial-up lines.  Don't need complex x.25 links or
any of the other things that the Compuserve, Western Union, et al. need and
have.  We have an MCI Account.  They bill us.  We pay them. :-)  I'm
just trying to get our various local (to our site) email systems linked up
for our use.  I don't want a service to do it for me.  Nor was the intention
to provide a service for others (although it is an idea).
