John, look around the new directory structure for Mark Turner's rmail.
There were a couple of sources for it before the FTP crash.  Rmail as
you will know is a part of the Unix mail suite that takes message bodies
and injects them into a mail system (UUCP, sendmail or whatever).  The
KA9Q-compatible one on Demon wasn't ideal, its address parsing was
incomplete and easily confused, but it worked in what it did and would
be a good base to start from.  If it's lost, I can probably dig one of
them out as I also did a little work on it at one time.
