Have a look for a package called umsmtp03.zip and (I think)
smtpkit1.zip, looking in ftp://ftp.demon.co.uk/pub/os2 would be a good
idea. I'm not sure whether the smtpkit1.zip file will be there, it
might be worth doing an ftp search for it.

I use OS/2 sendmail 2.02 and this setup to send and receive mail from
my ISP (they deliver by smtp as the primary means) and my clients
connect locally to sendmail to deliver mail. I use a fallback MX host,
my ISP's smarthost, so that if I don't get through direct the smart
host continues trying while I'm offline.

If you can't find these packages, I will try to send them to you myself
from home. Let me know...
