As I understand cc:Mail, it should work in _any_ envronment where it thinks
it "sees" the drive/files where the "postoffice"  resides as a drive 
(network or local).
 
If the clients have NFS client ability and the postoffice resides on a
platform with an NFS deamon, I believe it should work.  There may be some
special details with respect to the file-name mapping which happens between
DOS an "unix_like" environments, but that should be surmountable.
 
This is an area I am supposed to know about, but I have not tried this 
combination (yet).  I should, and may in the near future. 
 
PS - Im an old Bethesda Native... How's the traffic today!.
