Forwarded-For: rms@wheaties.ai.mit.edu (Richard Stallman) I am looking for a network server that would accept connections on a specified port and handle them by opening another connection to that same port on a prespecified machine and sending all data through in both directions. The idea is to allow one machine to hand off all mail traffic to another machine, and not have to run a real mailer at all. This would probably not be very hard for a person familiar with network software to write, but it might be painful to debug. So I wonder if such a program already exists. Does anybody know of one?
