Some days ago I posted the following request: >I am using an AT&T 3B2 with UNIX V Rel 3.0 and the Wollogong WIN/3B TCP/IP. >My problem is that any mail which comes in by uucp which uses domain >addressing is not delivered properly because my version of rmail >(the UNIX V version) doesn't understand domain addressing. >The WIN/3B TCP/IP manuals also just tell me to replace the existing rmail >by a BSD version of rmail which understands domain addressing. >Unfortunately the manuals won't tell me where I could get a copy of the >sources of BSD rmail. >Has anybody any idea where I could get a copy of the sources (USENET/EUNET >and anonymous FTP are both OK). >Please don't send me the sources right away to keep the network bandwidth >low. I will contact the site with the available sources from my side. To let anybody else who has the same problem participate on the feedback I received here are a summary of the answers which offer a solution to my problem. 1.) Get deliver (an rmail replacement for UNIX V rmail) via anonymous FTP from host ucsd.edu in the u3b2 directory. It is an UNIX V rmail replacement. 2.) Get rmail source of any archive which has a BSD distribution. The required files are: -r--r--r-- 1 rickert 75 May 11 1990 Makefile -rw-r--r-- 1 rickert 1194 Jun 25 09:49 paths.h -r--r--r-- 1 rickert 1608 May 31 22:39 rmail.1 -r--r--r-- 1 rickert 5956 May 31 22:38 rmail.c 3.) Get smail3 from comp.sources.unix archives or anonymous FTP archives on uunet.uu.net or uunet in the directory /usr/spool/ftp/networking. 4.) An /bin/mail replacement sent to me by Wolf Paul. I have appended this tiny program (about 60 lines of source code) at the end of this article. I for myself have solved the problem with the deliver program 1) which compiled and installed without any problems. It's a tiny program and does exactly what I needed. It comes in a shar file of about 18k Bytes uncompressed. The installation process was just typing 'make'. Thanks to Bruce Walker, Scott Campbell, Gary Heston, John F. Woods, Dave Platt, Jean Marie Diaz and Wolf N. Paul for their feedback. -------- cut here ----------- cut here -------------------------------------- W.N.Paul, Int. Institute f.

SVR4 version of rmail has domain address support. Just adding to your list.
