Hi, Does anybody have a copy of svbinmail.c from smail 2.5 that works with the new mailx and mail in uport 386 3.0xx. I am assuming that since mail changed for Sys V release 3.x that someone has submitted a patch or source for svbinmail. If someone has a copy could you e-mail it to me please. THanks in advance.

I am running smail 2.5 on my V/386 3.0e system, compiled without change from the same C source file that I used on my previous two systems, an AT clone running V/AT 2.4 and an AT&T UNIX PC/3b1 running a hybrid SVR2. Mailx does not even enter the picture when using smail, except to specify "sendmail=/bin/smail" in your .mailrc file. And looking at svbinmail.c, all it does is call either "/bin/lmail" (which should be a link to your original /bin/mail) to read mail, or "/bin/smail" to send mail. If you want it to call mailx, or elm, or something else to read mail, you can change the READER define at the beginning of the code. You probably should do that if you have linked /bin/lmail to a program like Jon Zeeff's lmail. But I cannot for the best of me find anything incompatible with SysVR3 in svbinmail.c. Wolf -- Wolf N.
