I have been using several mail transport agents under DOS. But
always returned to core.exe, Arachne is the best one.

smtpop12 (and older versions)
fdsmtpop
tcpmail (probably best)
ukappp (no idea which of the 163 files actually does the job)

Download sites should be easy to find through Google. Look at Dev's
"Interesting DOS programs" first.

BTW: Arachne would give a marvellous mail transport agent if she
were not so bloated with http and html stuff: Authors obviously
thought that users need a www browser and a GUI ;) Or that internet
software should be useable as database server as well ;))
