I know this may have been discussed in one form or another, but
I would like to bring it up again.

Many MacMail to SMTP interfaces have been through Quickmail or some
other product. I would be interested in hearing about efforts (maybe
there is only one or none) to make real UNIX mail and real SENDMAIL
work on a Macintosh network.

My point of view is that not everyone wants/can afford these 
commercial systems. It would be nice if /usr/ucb/mail was rehosted
to the Macintosh (with a mac like interface) and sendmail so that
real RULES could be used. I know this may be easier said than done,
but I thought I would bring it up.
