# Well, that's brilliant, at least. BUT. SCO people will use SCO C
# compilers, which behave differently from GNU/Cygnus compilers and want
# different header files and do other strange things. Hope that they also
# configure for GCC 2.8 and higher, since that's what I use on OS 5.0; on
# UnixWare I use the native SCO compiler.

They are testing it on both SCO C compilers and GNU on both systems.

Earlier you wrote:
# 1: The default now is to compile src/mail as standard. This compile
# needed adding /usr/lib/libsocket.a to MAILOBS in src/Makefile by hand,
# in order to compile mail (the configure script omits this);

Configure now checks for libsocket.a.

# 2: mail is still unusable when used by MS Internet Explorer 5 and
# Netscape Communicator 4.61. In IE 5.0 it still produces the same rubbish
# characters in the text and with Communicator it will not even send text.

I just tested it here and it works fine. Compiled it directly from a CVS copy.

Such as putting it in <EM>original body</EM> ?

Are there other problems I'm not aware of ?
