There are DECnets for Mac and PC, of course, although I don't know
how you're going to do any actual routing as opposed to simple
file parking. Once upon a time, my company even made a DECnet for
the Amiga, a licensed port of the Thursby code. (I wrote the
DECnet mail for the Amiga.) My DEC Pro 350 was once able to talk
to my Amiga this way, but my knowledge of this has been fogged by time.
