Yes and no.  Yes, if you're on the Internet, you can pick up bind
4.7.3 (named and resolver library) and a version of sendmail that
understands MX records, both from ucbarpa.berkeley.edu.

I should note that, when trying to bring up named 4.7.3 on a Pyramid
98x, I found that it had some problems including a core dump that I
don't have time to debug, so I dropped back to 4.7.2 as picked up from
Hedrick at topaz.rutgers.edu.  (And many thanx to Chuck for his help
educating a poor dummy who didn't know diddly about nameservers until
4 weeks ago.)

Otherwise, you may be out of luck.  It has been suggested that we put
up those sources on osu-cis for anonymous UUCP'ing, but I'm not sure I
can do that.
