Back when I worked in one of my Uncle Sam's DoD research labs, all
email was handled on the VMS cluster and distributed to other mail
servers and clients in the labs.   PMDF was the engine used there
for this task.   If you don't anticipate HUGE volume of email, even
MX could do this and MX is freeware.


So MX can do the subdomain -> decnet node name conversion?



Not straight out of the box, but it sounds like something fun to try
and set up.   MX can do a lot of useful things, including breaking out
to a DCL procedure to do message handling.

It would be an interesting feature to add though.   I guess if I looked
in to how MAIL-11 does its business it would be possible to knock up
something bi-directional.
