 Ok - I'm ready to be convinced (I've hacked on sendmail enough to
think "there's got to be an easier way.")

 I've got several machines all networked together on a private network;
mail goes out/comes in on one of the machines via a UUCP connection.
Each user has a .forward which sends the mail to their own machine
(a reasonable approach on a small network.)  Also, there are two Win/95
machines I'd like to add to this...

 Can qmail handle it, and, if so, how do I set it up?
