We're interested in using the POP server that comes with MH6.6
to serve networked micros using the MH client that comes with
the Stanford microcomputer IP implementations (Mac-IP and PC-IP).
This works fine if we pipe incoming mail through the slocal filter,
but this also unfortunately results in a non-standard spool file.
The spool file that the POP server reads has the MH delimiters (^A
by default), a Delivery-Date header, and a modified From header
(preceded by >).  The only host-based user agent that can read this
modified mail file is MH itself.

But we don't use MH much (at all) around here on our hosts.  Rather it's
a mix of BSD mail and Columbia MM.  All of Columbia MM, BSD mail, and
host MH can read a standard BSD mail file just fine (messages delimited
by the From (no colon) header.  Is there some trick to getting the POP
server to do the same?  If not, do sites that use the POP server simply
write off any host-based user agents other than MH?  Ideally, we'd like
our users to be able to use any of the host-based user agents as well
as the local agents via the POP server.
