I have moved my SMTP email receiver from Bluebottle to Blackbox. It
is connecting and receiving emails, and producing two files, a .RCP
file and a .MSG file, that could be used for an SMTP mailbox delivery
package. Overnight it received about 385 email that were forwarded
from Google mail, and gave encouraging performance.

It is not completely ported, however. There are at least 3 issues:

1. Do a reverse DNS name lookup. Anyone have a code snippet to do that?
2. Get the current machine's name.
3. Produce the current date in proper eMail format, set to GMT.
Anyone have that?
               e.g. Thu, 21 May 2009 08:13:42 -0700 (PDT)
4. The procedure GetCh that delivers the next incoming character
blocks. I haven't figured out a way around this. I would like ideas.
