	Could someone who has installed smail on Xenix 2.3.2 (386)
	email some tips on installation?

	The part that confuses me is in the Install instructions.
	The instructions specify which NEW files go where and which
	OLD files go where, but the paths aren't the same for Xenix
	as in vanilla SYSV. 

	ie. Xenix sports a /bin/Mail and a /usr/bin/mail but Install 
	says to move /bin/mail to /bin/lmail. Does this mean mv
	/usr/bin/mail to /usr/bin/lmail?

	Below are the instructions could someone insert the meaning
	as it applies to Xenix?

	(after compiling smail)

	1.	cp smail /bin/smail		(no problem)
	2.	mv /bin/mail /bin/lmail 	(???)
	3.	mv svbinmail /bin/mail		(no problem)
	4. 	mv /bin/rmail /bin/OLDrmail	(???)
	5.	ln /bin/smail /bin/rmail	(no problem)

	Thanks, much appreciation!
	Jeff
