Sean,

After reading that MM is in a Debian package, I had to look at the files
in MM 0.40 DOS to read what they say about OS/2 and LINUX and MM.

Here is a Clip of what I read at the bottom of the README file dated
April 2001.

Tested Systems
--------------

I'd like to get MultiMail tested on as many platforms as possible. I've
personally used it on:

Operating Systems:  Linux, Solaris, NetBSD, DOS, OS/2, Windows, BeOS
Processors:         i386, Sparc, m68k, Alpha, i86
Compilers:          GCC (including DJGPP, EMX, and RSXNT), Compaq Alpha
                    (w/ GNU make), Borland C++
Libraries:          ncurses, Solaris curses, PDCurses

If you get it going on a dissimilar system, please let me know (along with
any necessary patches). Or, let me telnet to your machine, and I'll try
porting it myself. :-)

I haven't updated MM since it works fine for my uses of it.

I wonder if William McBrine still is the maintainer, would You know?

What version number is the Debian package for MM?

Thanks.
