Well i'm much of a Linux man myself, and have also considered coding
in C/C++. The C code is easier to port, and will therefore give a lot
of other OS'es a chance. Initially i'm choosing Delphi, because it's
the development tool we use at my workplace. I might very well choose
C if the development runs along without too many obstacles in the way.

Why was the project suspended? Do you still feel it has a potential?

I know procmail, and like you I don't know whether or not it's
available in other OS'es. For a Linux port of the game, procmail would
be a good utility to use.
