Greetings,
          I am looking for a mail system for the Macintosh that can be
interfaced to our mainframe mail system.

The problem I am trying to solve is: We have a number of users who have moved
almost all their work from our mainframe computers to Macintosh applications,
this means that they are using the mainframes infrequently and thus, are not
receiving their e-mail in a timely manner.

What I want to do is build some sort of gateway between the mainframe mail
systems and a Mac based mail system so that these users will be able to send
and receive mail without having to log onto the mainframes.

As we currently run a LaserWriter Spooler from one of our UN*X boxes (using
the CAP software and a K-Box) I'm leaning towards writing some sort of mail
server that sits on a UN*X box and speaks via AppleTalk to the Mac mail
system.

Does anyone out there have any ideas, or can suggest a suitable mail system
that I could use for this application?

Please e-mail your responses to the address given in the signature, I'll
summarise to the net if there is sufficient interest.

Thanks
