What is the longest line allowed for BSMTP? What is the continuation syntax,
if there is one? Are lines limited to 80 columns?

The BSMTP "spec" doesn't mention this; RFC821 SMTP supports 512-byte commands.

Tom,

If you were looking for the address of someone on the west coast, or
overseas, I could see trying to obtain it by email.  However, Towson
is not that far from Annapolis, relatively speaking, and it's even
possible that this department has a local office right near you in
Baltimore County, as they do down here in the DC suburbs.

I'd suggest contacting Greg Day by phone to find out whether he has
_any_ kind of email address, not just Internet or BITNET, and then,
if he does but you're not sure how to send to it, asking for guidance
from the Info-Nets@Think.COM list.

(For what it's worth, I've not heard of any email in the Maryland state
government - but I'm always ready to be educated.)

My own feeling about this story is that it just sounds suspicious.  Who were th
e sources for the evening standard, for God's sake.  Newspapers just pick up se
nsational bullshit and recycle it, particularly if it is from far away.  That i
s what we call here in the US the "Afghanistan Principle" in journalism.  You c
an say anything about Afghanistan or for that matter Iraq or Myanmar because mo
st Americans couldn't find those places on a map of the world.  Without any con
text or any facts, Americans and perhaps others will believe just about anythin
g.  If this story is true, and it well may be, then it is so important, so incr
edible, that I suggest the sources should be impeccable.  I hope that they are.
  It may be true.  But if it is not, then when a real story like this comes alo
ng, the "boy who cried wolf" syndrome comes into play.  So, in conclusion, who
were the sources or(and I'll be it was one) who was THE source for the Evening
Standard story?  Newspapers copy each other, you know, endlessly.

Subj:	   INDONESIA: SOME TARGETS FOR THE YEAR 2000


          Indonesian Commercial Newsletter, 13 July
         1992, p.6-8:-
          The World Bank reckons that Indonesia will
         experience a growth rate of between 6-7% per
         annum in the non-oil and gas sector such that
         per capita income will stand at USD 1,040 per
         annum in the year 2000.
          The overall GDP is expected to rise by between
         5-6% per annum. The main source of rise in the
         GDP lies in the non-oil and gas sector and
         services which will experience a higher growth
         rate of 7%. This is due to the rapid growth of
         the industrial sector (10.5% per annum), the
         mining sector (10%) and the construction sector
         (8%).
          The agriculture sector is expected to grow at
         a rate of 3% per annum. Its role in the GDP
         will decline from 20% to 15% in the year 2000.
          Three important sub-sectors in the services
         field include:-
          1. services associated with infrastructure
         (especially electricity, telephone and
         transportation);
          2. tourist services (which includes
         accommodation, restaurants and recreational
         facilities which can raise retail trading); and
          3. construction services which are expected to
         increase in line with increasing new investment.

July 28th, Tuesday.

     A close dinner party was organized to serve those member  who is
miss home and home cook foods from Malaysia. The purpose of this dinner
party is to bring all the Malaysian students together to share and
get to know one another better before a new school year starts. We are
lucky to have a few active female members who willing to cook for us.
The food was excellent, I never taste anything like it for quite
sometime and it was really excellent foods. I can see that by watching
my members finished up the foods so fast. We had curry chicken( In three
different cooks), Malay rice, "Curry Sotong"( One of the major dish that
I enjoy the most), Chicken puff, "Mee Goreng" and a lot more. The dinner
party was a huge success and over 40 members came to the party.
Everybody had a good time that night and loaded their stomach full of
good foods before they head home. I hope we can do that again sometime
in the future. For those Malaysians out there, you too can enjoy good
food if you can put all your members together and organize a dinner
party like what we did.
     I will keep you inform our future activity, if you want to come
and join us, please keep in mind you are always welcome.

PRESS RELEASE
24.7.92
The commercial bank deal is, in essence a very big gamble.
And the executive has gambled with money, P32.1 billion, that
may otherwise be appropriated by Congress for purposes which
are more important, more productive and more urgent.  And we
say that President Ramos will live to regret this decision.
The executive is doing this at a time when Congress has yet to
convene and start deliberating on a national budget which is
supposed to prime up an economy that has ground to a halt.  It
is the best time for government to spend more to increase
demand, create jobs and dust of the country's underemployed
machines and brawn.  It is the worst time for bringing
resources out of the country.
One dollar spent in the Philippines today can generate more
returns than one dollar spent in paying debt which is not even
falling due yet.
At this time nothing can better improve the creditworthiness
of the country save the priming up of the economy with money
that is already here in the coffers of the National Treasury.
Nothing can better make the country more unattractive to
foreign investors than the continued stagnation of the economy
because of austerity measures which, even at this time, are
already being prepared by Mr Christopher Browne of the
International Monetary Fund.
Even by their own standards, our debt negotiators know that
they have a lousy deal in their hands.  This deal is
manifestly interior to deals which Argentine, Brazil and
Venezuela were able to bargain.  The FDC has painstakingly
demonstrated this fact but the executive has paid no heed and
has not been able to answer our claims.
Contrary to our negotiators' claims it is those conutries
which earlier on implemented unilateral actions on debt which
were able to force the creditors to negotiate for deals which
are superior.  There is no denying this.
In short, this is all a mistake.  Rather than leaving the debt
issue behind us, we have only increased the probability of
being further left behind.
The FDC will continue to pursue legal avenues to invalidate
the agreement.  We will also ask the Senate and the Lower
House to require Mr. del Rosario and Mr. Cuisia to stand
before the public and defend this act.

/* ---------- "Chamlong wins Magsaysay award" ---------- */
Partially quoted from Bangkok Post, July 21

  Former Palang Dharma Party leader Chamlong Srimuang was awarded for the
Ramon Magsaysay award for government service yesterday. The former Bangkok
governor was cited for inspiring tens of thousands of Thais during the
pro-democracy protests in May.
  "With a stunning act on non violent protest that prompted his arrest, he
galvanised the public to reject the unelected leader (name mentioned in
parenthesis)," the Ramon Magsaysay award foundation said in its citation,
referring to the hunger strike staged by Maj-Gen Chamlong.
  "If elected leaders are no better than military strongmen or demineering
party bosses, why should the people take risk of insisting on democracy.
  "As the elcted governor of Bangkok and a champion of democratic reforms in
Thailand, Chamlong Srimuang has renewed hope among Thais that the risk is
worth taking," the citation said.
  Maj-Gen Chamlong is the second Thai national to receive a Magsaysay award
in two years. Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn received the award last year
for public service.
  He will receive a medal and a cash award of $30,000.
  The Magsaysay awards are given in five categories annually to outstanding
Asians or institutions in the region.
  They were established in memory of former Philippine president Ramon
Magsaysay, who died in a plane crash in 1957.

I really appreciate this article.  Marcos ran the country without the consent
of its constituents.  He borrowed money for his self-serving interest, not for
the interest of the Filipino people.  The World Bank, IMF and other inter-
national and multilateral lending institutions were aware of this fact.  Why
are they asking the Filipino people to pay Marcos and his cronies' debt?

FIJI SUNDAY, DAILY POST,     PACNEWS ED-2  , JULY 22, 1922

Fiji cabinet ministers differ sharply in their views on the country's Sunday
Observance Decree.

Trade and Commerce Minister Harold Powell has told parliament the  Sunday bans
were a theology that belonged in the realms of fantasy.

However, the Minister for Infrastructure and Public Utilities,  Colonel Apolosi
Biuvakaloloma supported the Sunday Decrees saying that  natural disasters
created by an act of God were now absent.

Colonwel Biuvakaloloma said devastating cyclones had become an annual event
until the imposition of the Sunday Observance decree after the military coups
of 1987.

He urged that because of this Sunday observance should continue.

Earlier, the leader of government business in the House of Representatives
Kelemedi Bulewa had called for Fiji to be declared a Christian state and for
everyone to be persuaded to convert to Christianity.

The call was supported by the Minister of State for Health, Solomone Naivalu
who warned that the Hindu celebration of Diwali and the  Muslims' Prophet
Mohammed's birthday should be scrapped if non-Christians do  not respect
Sundays...end

PNG - WINGTI - ZALE: NBC/PNG, PACNEWS ED-1, JULY 21 1992

The new Papua New Guinea Prime Minister, Paias Wingti is
reported to have said he will never allow Bougainville to
breakaway and he wants the Solomon Islands government to explain
why it has issued secessionist leader, Bishop John Zale a
Solomon Islands passport.

PNG national radio, NBC says the new government is angered at
the issuing of a passport to Bishop John Zale and that it will
issue a strong statement condemning the Solomon Islands
government over the matter.

The Solomon Islands government last week issued a passport to
Bishop John Zale on the grounds that he is a Solomon Islander by
birth - and listed his place of residence as the "Republic of
Bougainville."

The NBC quoted government officials as saying the protest note
will be in the strongest form and could seriously affect
relations between PNG and Solomon Islands.

The government officials say the granting of the passport is
viewed as a very serious matter and pointed out that the
previous Prime Minister Namaliu has also made it clear there
would be no independence for Bougainville.

The secessionist leaders on Bougainville maintain that the only
solution to the Bougainville crisis is independence and they had
expressed pleasure about Paias Wingti's election as Prime
Minister, saying there was some hope of achieving this after he
indicated in his election campaign that he would tackle the
issue with an open mind. ....ends.

There are indications that a thaw could be under way in the strained relations
between the Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands  governments resulting from
the spill-over effects of the Bougainville crisis.

New PNG Prime Minister Paias Wingti has invited his Solomon Islands
counterpart, Solomon Mamaloni to travel with him in the PNG  government VIP
aircraft, the Kumul, to the extraordinary Melanesian Spearhead  Group summit in
Port Vila, Vanuatu.

Mr Mamaloni has accepted the invitation and both leaders will be  flying
together to Port Vila tomorrow.

Earlier indications of the thawing of relations included Mr  Mamaloni's
congratulatory note to Mr Wingti in which he expressed confidence  in the new
Prime Minister to resolve the Bougainville crisis, and to  restorenormal
relations with Solomon Islands.

And in another move, Prime Minister Wingti refused to give consent  for harsh
protest notes to be sent to Honiara over the granting of a  Solomon Islands
passport to secessionist leader, Bishop John Zale.

The Melanesian summit on Wednesday will discuss regional political developments
including New Caledonia and the Bougainville crisis, and trade and economic
issues. ....ends.
