There are lots of strange breeds of mail systems out in the world that run on Unix systems. Of those, I know of; /bin/mail The 'first' user interface to the mail system. Mail(aka mailx) The Berkeley rewrite of /bin/mail Elm (aka msg) A public domain mailer w/ screen-oriented interface Mh A public domain mailer with discrete Unix commands rmail A mailer that lives in GNU Emacs and needs MH (?) Of those, I'd like to get more information on rmail from someone. Also, I'm SURE there are lots of other mail systems (I know of dmail, uumail and nmail too, but I'm not sure they let you READ mail too). If you use or have access to a mail system that isn't in this small list, PLEASE let me know. Ideally, I'd like to have the following information; o the name of the system o the system is was created on and now runs on o the author(s) name(s) and organization o ** as much documentation as possible ** o idealy a sample 'usage' session with the system too, in case the documentation doesn't have too much detail... Thanks a lot. I'll post a summary of the information I receive to net.mail in a month or so... -- Dave Taylor (taylor@hplabs.HP.COM) moderator: mod.comp-soc and mod.conferences and Elm/Msg author
