nc386 is running a version of smail that was compiled on a 2.2 Dev Sys.

The problem is in main().  smail does a `return 0' instead of an
`exit(0)'.  Change that line and re-make.  You should be fine.

That bug is said to have been fixed in the 2.3 Dev Sys release
although I haven't tested it.

Pax, Keith
