I dont know offhand.  Most of this was done well before my time.
However, I know that mh, pine, mutt, emacs (rmail/gnus), netscape, and

Why it is any worse that using LDAP?  You already need DNS to lookup
the ip address of the server, why not use the same service to
determine which server to use?

Anyways, this is getting way off-topic for openafs-info.  Replies
should be off-list.
