Our mailers include the Apollo ring, a series of Suns, HPs, IBM PC RTs, GPXs(Ultrix) and an Vax 8600 running Wollongong TCP/IP. I'm using the GPX cf file on the Apollos and Suns with great success. With a little modification, I've got all systems sending UUCP mail over the Ethernet to my HP which is my uunet connection and the HP automatically sends back over the Ethernet any mail that it recognizes as a local TCP/IP host. With the GPX config file, you can define trouble hosts to route around too. For example, a bug in the HP's sendmail facility causes it to dump core and go "crazy" whenever it trys to talk to the RT's SMTP. So I told the HP to route any request to the RT to the Sun first and the Sun delevers it. You could easily add these capabilities to the existing cf file or write one from scratch, but the GPX configuration file has more included in it than any other that I've seen.
