	I've just started looking into getting MMDF up on my 4.3BSD vax
because we have a phonenet-speaking (pmdf) VMS host we want to talk to.
The problem is that I don't want to get rid of sendmail (not that I have
any great love for sendmail, but it seems too radical a step).  Does
anybody have any experience running both MMDF and Sendmail at the same
time?  Seems like it should be pretty trivial (VMS machine calls in, gets a
phonenet connection to MMDF, which then hands off to sendmail via SMTP)
but I've been told that it's not that easy.

	Lacking that, anybody know of a phonenet module I can just plug
into sendmail?  My current plan is to graft the mmdf phonenet stuff into
sendmail, but if somebody has already invented that wheel, (or proven it
impossible) I'd like to know about it.
