AT&T mailx is really Berkeley Mail, which is not restricted by the AT&T
source license, and is therefore available for anonymous FTP from
uunet.uu.net in the directory bsd-sources/src/ucb/Mail. Some common
public-domain mailers are elm, mm, mh, and mush. I'm sure that each
of these has been ported to the Unix-PC at one time or another.

The ms macros are part of the AT&T licensed source, but the me macros
are not. You can get them with anonymous FTP from uunet.uu.net in the
directories bsd-sources/lib/tmac and bsd-sources/lib/me.
