Has anyone ported elm to DOS for use with SMTP or some other link with UNIX (PC-NFS, etc)??

(Oh oh, what would that be nice...). Elm is tended to be a user interface instead of a mail delivery agent, i.e., you use elm to compose your mail and something else, such as sendmail, to deliver it. Sendmail handles smtp and also interfaces with other delivery agents such as uux. > And, I know I'm repeating and repeating and... WHEN WILL ELM 2.1 BE AVAILABLE ? Latest word I've heard is that elm 2.1 will be officially available in comp.sources.unix around mid-September. -- Darrell McIntosh Gould CSD, Urbana Software Development Center Phone: (217) 384-8509 Internet: darrell@xenurus.Urbana.Gould.COM Usenet: uunet!uiucuxc!urbsdc!darrell

If you want, you can see if your mail is deliverable as far as your network can handle. >Latest word I've heard is that elm 2.1 will be officially available in >comp.sources.unix around mid-September.
