I would recommend SIMS, freeware mailserver from http://www.stalker.com
You must have Open Transport 1.1.2 or better (you can upgrade Open
Transport with a download from Apple if you are running system 7.5.5 or
earlier. I think you will find it better than AIMS

Now Software and its entire product line is now owned by Qualcom, the same
fine people who give us the free version of Eudora.
