- Depending on your tastes and usage, you might try one of the MacOS mailers.
- There are quite a few running around, including my own (Eudora).
-
- Eudora even uses pretty much the same format for mail as most UNIX mailers,
- so you can share mailboxes between environments (with a couple of caveats),
- and perhaps even aliases, depending on the UNIX mailer.
-
- Now, of course a MacOS mailer doesn't do you much good if you don't have
- MacOS going, but I can't imagine anyone picking A/UX except because they
- wanted to use MacOS in addition to UNIX (barring extreme personality
- disorders, of course :-)).
