Dmail under sys3

I have gotten dmail working under System III, by means of much hacking and an
interface to /bin/mail (or /etc/delivermail, for that matter) which reads the
To:, Cc:, and Bcc: lines from a message coming in on stdin (if invoked with
-t; otherwise it execs /bin/mail), discards Bcc:'s, and adds sendmail-style
Date: and From: lines. If anyone's interested, I'll diff the sources so that I
can #ifdef the changes for BSD42_3, ATT3_5, and RE_V7 and post them, along with
my mail interface.
One flame: if the author of dmail had been working under sys3 he wouldn't
have misused pointers: my first use of setlist caused dmail to dump core when
it did a free(0). Would it have been much harder to check the list of setlist
header lines for nullity before freeing it? End flame.
