The summary of currently available mail packages for the mac was good, but... checkout uShare by Information Presentation Technologies. Supposidly it provides an interface to SMTP on a unix host for the mac. The software on the mac is an application and can notify you of incoming mail while in another application. The mac is not an SMTP server, it just allows you to send and receive mail through a SMTP mail server without logging in via telnet to do it. uShare is a modular product that also provides things like terminal emulation, file sharing (unix host as AppleShare server), print spooling (to the unix host lpq)... Interesting note: uShare provides and upgrade to Kinetics software that MUST be installed. The software causes the Kinetics to talk TCP/IP on the Ethernet side. Therefore uShare is incompatible with certain software that relies Kinetics/IP, eg. Tops for the Sun. It IS compatible with NCSA Telnet. This product is on the shelf. I just haven't gotten mine yet.
