Xenix Mail User Interfaces

I am looking for some recommendations on a mail interface that will work on
an Altos 2086 running Xenix. I have smail and pathalias compiled an working
but with smail installed, the user interface is poorer than that of the 
original mail program supplied with Xenix. 

If someone has binaries already compiled that I could try out for a little
bit that may be the way to go if possible. I really want to upgrade this 
system because I like the features smail gives me , but I HATE the features
that it takes away from me. 

Right now with smail installed I lose the headers that I used to get like
the "subject" etc. I also don't have the compose escape sequences that 
I like in the stock mail program. 

Any suggestions?
