I have been trying to get the IDA sendmail enhancement kit running
on an Ultrix 3.0 system.  The main interest is the nifty extended
aliasing functions that it provides.  Basically, if I can get it to
run properly, I can send mail out onto the Internet from any of
my dozen or so accounts around the plants, and it will always say
From: Donna_McCrave@Kodak.COM.  Of course, an alias must exist
on the machine to forward any incoming mail to my preferred mail box.

The problem is that this feature requires the newer dbm library
than the 4.2BSD system provides.  (If you have access to SunOS 4.0,
the include file is /usr/include/ndbm.h as opposed to the older
version, /usr/include/dbm.h for an idea of the differences).  I
assume that the newer dbm library is part of the 4.3BSD offering,
but I'm not really sure, not being a guru.

So, has anyone ported IDA to the older dbm library?  Is it 
feasible to port the newer dbm library to the machine?  I believe
we have a source license somewhere....

Thanks in advance for any advice.
