Have you tried using the visual mail program provided in AXsh v1.25?  It's
called "ami" and it's pretty nifty...

Hats off to the guys who made AXsh...it's simply wonderful!  Now, if I can
just use my WShell filename completion under it, I'd be ecstatic.

Disclaimer: I know NOTHING about either of these packages. Please don't
            expect me to be able to answer questions.

I've placed fred103.lzh and rfmail050.zip at:

            wuarchive.wustl.edu:/systems/amiga/incoming/comm
            amiga.physik.unizh.ch:/amiga/new

Here are the specs on the files:

 ----rwxd    1     109949  31-Aug-92 18:16:28  fred103.lzh

FRED is a FIDO to Usenet gateway, theoretically going both ways. The
documentation is sparse, at best. It is integrated into AmigaUUCP,
although the included documentation last mentions 1.13D.

RFMAIL is a Unix package supposed to do the same thing, but routing occurs
through email. I've been told that using Markus Wild's ports of dmake,
GCC 2.2 and pdksh; and establishing a Unix-like directory hierarchy on
your system will allow it to work just fine. I have no idea.

These packages are also available via BMS from adastra.cvl.va.us in the
ARCHIVES: directory.

Date: 27 Aug 92 21:30:05 GMT
Organization: DSC Communications Corp, Plano, TX


Has anyone set up their uucp to allow remote login? I have a 
uucp connection to work and would love to be able to dial up
my amiga, log on to it and do some minimal work (usually, just
move around and find a file to uucp to myself at work). I 
know I can request a file via uucp, but sometimes its not in
a non-protected directory, or I just don't remember the name
or the directory its in.  

I read that someone had problems where the getty got hung up
after they logged off. Is anyone out there using this new 
feature (to 1.16)?

Thanks in advance.

Is not AXAUX handling the ACTION_READ_PACKET sent by the application?

If so, it would seem to me that giving the EOF after a specified time is
perfectly legal. As is SIGBREAKF_CTRL_C. CBM has been saying for years that
programmers should clean up and handle a CTRL-C properly.

Hello,

	Since a lot of people including ME have been trying to get AXsh
to work with UUCP I though I might give some clues as how to do it.

	I just finished testing my bbs system and now news and MAIL work
perfectly.  Getting news to work was no problem.  But getting mail to work
has been a problem.  So here goes. . ...

delete ram:let

*************************************NOTE**********************
REXXMAST must be running.  I renamed RX as RXX because under AXsh "rx" is
receive xmodem!!!!!!!
JUST to be safe I made accesible ALL relavent commands. Like:
sendmail rmail rxx    In my rc file that is!

assign env: to ram: as it would be changed for EACH user logged on!



I hope this has helped!



I am still working on the problem of REPLYING to an article from within
TNEWS!  If you can help out or you figure out a way then email me your
config files or post them!

ONE more thing before I go!  I would LOVE it if the author of AXsh would
put in a time limit variable in the rc file!!  As of now ONE user can keep
the bbs busy ALL day!

BYE and yourwelcome!   ;-)

You have a point there. :-) But I, and possibly most others, assumed that 
people connected to here, would also be connected to alt.sys.amiga.uucp.
There was talk a while back about standard headers for postings. I've
inquiered but heard nothing moer about it. I don't mind adhering to a
standard, but I do need to know what the standard is. Might mike a good
discussion, but let's take it to alt.sys.amiga.uucp where it's a bit
more on topic.

I don't mean to pick on Boinger (or anyone else), but I've begun to notice
that Amiga postings to alt.sys.amiga.uucp.patches include a small message in
front of part 1.  This is good.  What's bad is that this message usually
refers to some other message (usually in alt.sys.amiga.uucp) saying that the

Did I not send you a response?  For that I am sorry.  Yes AVM requires
reqtools.library (V38 or 2.0)  I believe that it was added to the
documentation.  AVM also requires a larger stack size.  Setting the stack
to 30000 or 40000 should be sufficient.

I am working on making the startup code produce better (or even ANY) error
reports when it cannot find a library, etc.  The only problem is that AVM
is linked with SAS's _tinymain which provides no window I/O.  This is to 
keep the default I/O window from popping up when AVM is launched from the
WorkBench.

Please, if you have suggestions, problems, complaints, or bug reports, 
PLEASE send them to gstark@misvax.mis.arizona.edu  I just moved and
not all of my email may be getting to me at the right site.

If you are having trouble getting AVM to run/configure please send me a
note and I will help.

Well, it should be found in the /man/axsh.man . The administrators manual only
describes the system, not the shell itself. You can found some documentation
about some special variables etc. also.

The AXshAdmManual that is distributed with the packet.. The original intention
was to mail the printed version of the manual to all registered users,
but I think we are going to make that just a donation fee.. I don't know yet.

No, it is quite impossible. Pipes are not a nice thing to allow for normal
users anyway.. But we'll see what waits in the future.

I don't know about this.. Oh, so rn should give postnews an

This is already corrected. I just didn't know that postnews don't check for
them. At least the other Path: and From: lines were deleted in the way here..

Go to the top-level and push 'e' and set 'full headers'..

Just send your suggestions to po87553@cs.tut.fi. All of the bugs reported
this far are corrected and some suggested features are added. Just wait for

Hello again,

	If anyone has gotten Ann to work with UUCP1.16D from Matt Dillon then
I would appreciate that you send me your config files or example of them.
have created the active file no problem. Not sure about .newsrc file.

	The program runs opens a window and then exits cleanly without
doing anything!!!  This is beta version is there some special variables
having to be set to get it to work???

That looks like a handy thing to have. What I'd prefer though is a

After losing the power supply, tbi has just returned. If you have tbi listed
as being registered with your site, please remove that registry. I have lost

Thank you!
