I posted the original question which prompted this response.  What I was
looking for was software to implement a *local* gateway, not a public
access gateway.  I am aware that paymail systems are not candidates for
public access gateways.

I want to avoid having to call the local MCI mail number MANUALLY---I would
rather have my Sun do it, then relay the mail to me automatically.  I was
hoping that some software exists to perform this function.
