The classic TCP/Native TCP communications problem is what keeps the OS X 
version from working well on a single OS X machine running Classic 
SIMS.  This is the problem that will eventually push me out of SIMS, but 
not for a while yet.  There is no OS X documentation that I've found, but 
that's a known issue with TCP apps across the two environments.

I never remember where it is, either, but  MacOrchard is a good resource 
for this kind of thing...
http://www.macorchard.com/

Yep, it gives us http://macjordomo.med.cornell.edu/

I don't see a web link for the OS X version, but it's on MacOrchard as
ftp://macjordomo.med.cornell.edu/MacjordomoX.sit  It doesn't seem to have 
any features that the OS 9 version doesn't also have.  I didn't run it for 
long, but it seemed like a good, solid port.  The date on the .sit file in 
the FTP archive is 6/19/2002,

According to the web page, the support list is:

I'm not on it, so, I can't vouch for it...
