	Oh wow, haven't you seen/heard of mercury?  SMTP for Novell.  
Supports the Pegasus mail line of programs.  They do novell and Internet 
mail, clients are available for Windows, DOS and MAC. 
ftp://risc.ua.edu/pub/network/pegasus>; is a directory with it all.  
Pegasus and Mercury is freeware.

	Mercury runs under the TCP/IP package for Novell, it needs a 
smart mailer for outgoing mail (but will take incoming mail directly)

	Two and a half  good implementations are possible.  FreeBSD 
running UUCP every once and a while to talk to the world and sending mail 
to Mercury over the local net via SMTP, FreeBSD running dedicated 
PPP/SLIP, or FreeBSD running on demand PPP and while that's running 
picking up mail via UUCP over TCP/IP ~ I have run all three and all are 
acceptable for small to medium sized business.

	If they want dedicated ISDN, you don't even need a Unix box at 
their site, just put in an Ascend Pipeline 50, Mercury on a file server, 
and use it ISP's system for a smart mailer.
