This has probably been asked before, but I haven't seen it discussed
recently, so apologies if I am opening up an old topic.

We have an ethernet of Suns and other Unix machines and also an
Appletalk (Localtalk) network of Mac's and PC's.  These are connected
together with TOPS via a Kinetics Fastpath.

Question: Can someone point me a reasonable electronic mail program 
	for the Mac which will allow a user to exchange messages
	with Unix mail environment?

	What I have (and am not interested in) is a telnet or terminal
	emulator program which allows the Mac user to speak Unix to
	a Unix shell environment.  What I want is a native Mac program,
	complete with Mac user interface, use of Mac files and folders,
	etc., so that my Mac users don't have to learn yet another
	(unfriendly) system.

Thanks,
