3This directory contains the source files for mail.local.

5This is not intended to be used on *stock* System V derived systems such as
6Solaris or HP-UX, since they use a totally different approach to mailboxes
7(essentially, they have a setgid program rather than setuid, and they rely
8on the ability to "give away"  files to do their work).

10If you choose to run *this* mail.local on these systems then you may also
11need to replace the existing MUAs, as well as IMAP and POP servers, with
12ones that are compatible with the BSD interface.  You have been warned!
