I submit, however, that what we really need to do is bundle a replacement for the ancient /bin/mail program in (V7, sIII, sV.*) along with the netnews distribution. /bin/mail has not been adequate to the needs of any networked organization for a number of years, and as long as AT&T continues to pretend that it is, we have to fend for ourselves. Anybody have a good, public domain replacement that is easily configured, can deal with domains, has mail alias support, can deliver local mail with the appropriate mailbox locking, and can read a pathalias generated path list to get out to the UUCP network?
