[comp.sources.wanted] Wanted: mail archive server software

jik@athena.mit.edu (Jonathan I. Kamens) (03/05/91)

  I'm looking for a reasonable implementation of an archive server I can run
on my workstation.

  I've tried RNALIB which was posted to comp.sources.unix and alt.sources.  It
doesn't cut it, for several reasons, including: it needs a shell with
functions; it assumes that \n and \c will work with echo; and its header
parsing is miserable (it chokes on 'From: "Jonathan I. Kamens"
<jik@ATHENA.MIT.EDU>'.

  I've also looked at procmail, which appears to provide the framework in
which an archive server might be installed, but doesn't provide any of the
stuff that would actually be needed to run such a server.

  I've checked the comp.sources.unix, comp.sources.misc and alt.sources
archives, but can't seem to find anything other than what I've mentioned
above.  I checked Elm and Mush, and neither of them appears to be suited for
this.

  Please E-mail me your recommendations, and I will post a summary to the net.

  Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
