   Argus, Radius and Taurus are all derived frm the same Delphi source code...   
   Delphi is pascal for the most part...   
      
   modem support has little to do with cross platform capability...   
      
    AI>  2. On linux, the source would need GTK or QT to create the GUI.   
      
   they're common enough... with the proper tool, pretty transparent, too...   
      
    AI>  3. I don't have a pascal compiler available to me (it could be done

   freepascal is only a download away as is the lazarus RAD editor/environment...   
   lazarus can even convert some delphi projects to FP/Laz projects... the first   
   job of porting is to get FP/Laz to compile it... then one can work on porting   
   to *nix...

   i started porting one of the above three mailers several years ago but RL got   
   in the way... i started off by manually translating the russian comments to   
   english first, one line at the time... i also have, somewhere around here,   
   partially translated taurus help files using the same technique... at that   
   time, babblefish was the translator to use...
