One thing that may make sense on the low power front... I emulated 3 simultaneous Vaxes
on one RasPi...
If you are less than secure (BSD 4.X) at least the host can be up to date with emulation.
Running 4.2 with Sendmail 5 scares me. Emulated UUCP and maps less so.

Speaking of Warren and UUCP (and wise words from Larry here, but I'm going
off in a slightly different direction).
Warren was working on getting a UUCP network up and running again to
commemorate the Unix 50th anniversary. I was (and probably still am) on the
mailing list, but activity has kind of petered off as of late. Anyway, you
may want to get in touch with him and see if you can leverage some of that
work or perhaps join forces.

As much as
anything else, the idea is to build a community of friendly
folks
that want to play / learn / help each other,
likely in direct relation to
retro computing.
So just a thought. A good curator, looking at you Warren, helps keep
things sane. If your fun project takes off, be picky about who you let
in and what sort of behaviour you will tolerate. One toxic person can
chase everyone away.
