Karr) Date: Mon, 29 Aug 88 16:00:43 EDT X-Mailer: Elm [version 2.1 alpha-test] Status: R Howdy, Ron. Here's another goodie for Smail's "pd" directory. The Xenix mail system is derived indirectly from Berkeley's. Thus there is a program like Mail (/usr/bin/mail) and a program like sendmail (/usr/lib/mail/execmail). The /usr/bin/mail program can be "persuaded" to use execmail for delivery of all mail. (This is done by putting a command "set execmail" in the global mail configuration file /usr/lib/mail/mailrc.) When I first got Smail 2.5, I wrote a small program, "execm", that replaces the standard Xenix execmail. Execm parses execmail options and then runs Smail. When Smail 3.1 arrived, I modified execm to use Smail's new options. Below, find a sharchive for execm: one Makefile and one C source file. These files should be all that a Xenix user needs to use Smail with the standard Xenix mail program. -- Chip Salzenberg <chip@ateng.uu.net> or <uunet!ateng!chip> A T Engineering stuck in a closet with Vanna White
