I just installed on System V/88 R40v2 on the Motorola Delta Series sytems in my lab. I decided to simplify things by having *only* Smail handle mail transport, so I went ahead and installed with the LMAIL hack. I haven't tried touching the mailsurr file, and it looks like I won't have to. Originally, I had my "transports" file set up to do the Content-Length stuff and not the "unix_from_hack", but I found that Elm 2.3.11 doesn't grok the new format (though I've heard that 2.4 will), so I turned the "unix_from_hack" and 'suffix="\n"' lines back on, in addition to the Content stuff, for anyone using mailx. Here's a diff of sys5.4 vs. sys5.4.mot, which I used for the Motorola SVR4. It includes turning on LMAIL. The current release, R40v2 does not seem to include /dev/sysmsg, so CONSOLE is set to /dev/console. (That deficiency has been reported to the SV/88R4 developers.) SVR4 Systems file is in /etc/uucp. And, I added a few items to HAVE that I strongly suspect are standard SVR4 features. At least, they're in SV/88R4.
