That's a good idea.
I'll do that.

ITP: axmail

[Joop Stakenborg]

I intend to package axmail: a simple mail user agent intended to provide the
mail functions in xNOS in a Linux ax.25 environment.

Although the README says: Don't give this one to anyone yet... it is NOT ready
for distribution!; it seems to work well.

Also, please note that you should submit ITPs by filing a bug against the wnpp
package, sending email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'Severity: wishlist' and
subject line 'ITP: packagename'.
