- You might take a look at Zmail written by Dan Heller the author of MUSH. It
- runs in one of two modes, dumb terminal or GUI. In dumb terminal it acts
- much like the original mush mailer, and in the GUI mode it runs under X and
- Open Look. Under the GUI mode it has many of the MINE features. Not having
- done any work with MINE yet I can't tell how complete it is, so you'll
- have to find out for yourself. You can get a demo copy from ftp.ora.com in
- /pub/z-code/zmail.
