You need either tip or kermit, preferably the latter. Get it from
kermit.columbia.edu by anonymous ftp.

It comes with instructions.

> Do I need to connect using SLIP login to the other unix?

No. You can get SLIP (or better yet PPP) running, though, if you want
to.

> Is it possible using a shell instead SLIP?

Yes. Kermit will let you do this.

Yes, someone would like to explain it, but that someone isn't me. Get
Avolio and Vixie's book, "Sendmail: Theory and Practice" (or something
like that) published by Digital Press, and get the three-inch-thick
O'Reilly and Associates sendmail book (can't remember the authors'
names). Or get a competent friend to set up your sendmail.cf for you.

Setting up sendmail.cf takes a real time investment if you want to do
it yourself and you've never done it before.
