I really am not in a position to debug an initial beta version that is over 40 versions back or help hack configure for a strange and unknown system setup.

Is this a Unix/Linux box that you are telneting to ? Is procmail installed on the system ? Or does the email MTA have .forward file support ? Then you might be able to have the mailer forward the mail into a local copy of hypermail.

To be able to do that means you would need to know the operating system they are using and have a similar version of the OS to compile a copy of hypermail on...
