Why don't you just using Esix and install smail in place of sendmail?  The
sendmail problem doesn't seem like enough of a reason to slam the door shut
on Esix.

The things I've heard about Interactive and SCO do *NOT* lead me to believe
they are all so great themselves...  It seems that ALL of the available 
products have their own unique problems.
