Cayman Systems is planning on proving Mac <--> Unix mail support with their GatorBox sometime in the second quarter. The Mac end will use Microsoft Mail and the Unix end will be the "standard" Unix mailers. I've no more details than that. You can contact Cayman at (617) 494-1999. I'm not connected with Cayman Systems in any manner other than as a satisfied customer. -David Kovar Technical Consultant Harvard University

Regarding recent queries about a UNIX-compatible mail for networked
Macs: I believe Stanford has a public-domain implementation of POP (Post
Office Protocol) for the Mac, which allows Mac users to send and retrieve
mail from a POP server on a remote host. They need not have a user account
on the big machine; merely a POP mailbox. Whether this could be integrated
with standard UNIX mail, I don't know.
