Port? Hmmm..xfmail was developed on FreeBSD so it does not need any patches to run on FreeBSD. I, as an author of xfmail , really would like to see it in the ports collection , but since xforms library is distributed only in binary form it's kinda difficult to accomplish. Maybe Satoshi has some ideas about it? :-) If yes, i would like to maintain xfmail and xforms (if it could be ported) ports.. > >-Mark Taylor Best regards. -------- Gennady B.
