  We have SMTP on the VM side, and Janet on one of the VMS machines. The
UNIX<=>VMS is done by (a) SMTP on the VMS machines (some Wolongong some
Excelan), and an Ultrix gateway running decnet-ultrix.

  I would still like to find a source for decnet on UNIX, which could be
ported to Suns and Xenix machines.
