I'm a neophyte NeXT admin--I've never set up a NeXT until now.  We have a
couple on a TCP/IP network with mostly UNIX machines and PCs.  I've tried
setting up one NeXT by following the "Setting up a NeXT on a Mixed Network"
chapter in the administrator's manual, and I've got it to the point where I
can telnet in and out, but mail doesn't work.  The manuals don't mention how
to set up mail in a mixed environment.  I'd appreciate it if someone could
point me at some resources where I could learn how to set up mail in 
particular, and also where I could learn about administering NeXTs generally.
Please email me directly.  Thanks in advance.
