We are contemplating the purchase of a 100 user computer system, and have come across a promising candidate in the Masscomp 5700 series. I think that there are users out there that are currently using Masscomps, and that they are running Berkeley (or System V) mailers on them that hook into ARPANET. I would appreciate hearing from those of you who either fit the above description, or would otherwise like to participate in a short discussion, on how SMTP and/or MMDF interacts with the dual-environment systems that Masscomp offers. That is, they offer a basic System V with Berkeley 4.2 BSD as a second environment. The basic question here is: If mmdf hooks into the berkeley mailer, msg, can it be modified (or has someone done this already) to allow it to work in both UNIX environments that Masscomp offers? More basic question: Has anyone used one of the "new" Masscomps on Arpanet? Please send a cc: to <angeloc@pica-qa> since I may not get the info-unix response. -- Angelo J. Castellano, AMSMC-QAH-P
