[comp.sources.d] nn and better MUA wanted

theys@lynx13.UUCP (Theys Radmann) (12/12/90)

How can I get the source of 'nn' ?  I am currently using 'vn', but it
is a bit a-pain-in-the-ass, as you can't selectively read news (only
sequentially read pages of news). Rn does not work on my machine 
(I got a SCO binary, and I don't have the source either).

Also I am interested in a better MUA than binmail (my mailx does not
use smail as the mailer, and I can't fool it). It is for sending
mail that I'd like it; I still can read with mailx/Mail. 
(What about elm ?).

( N.B. I'm running Altos Unix 5.3.1 ).

Thanks in advance.

On my System V system, in my .mailrc, I can instruct mailx to use
sendmail with the line

set sendmail=/usr/lib/sendmail
