Subject: Email connection to Bandung, Indonesia?
Date: 30 Jul 92 14:09:45 GMT
Organization: AAI Corp AI Lab, JHU P/T CS Faculty

I am making inquiries on behalf of a friend in Bandung, Indonesia.
He is looking into the possibility of an email connection from
Bandung to the US. What would his best options be?

The only possibility of which he is currently aware is to buy a
fast modem and dial into a commercial service in another country
such as Prodigy, MCImail, Compuserve, etc. He is not aware of any
connection to any of these without dialing out internationally, 
but has very incomplete information.

Any suggestions on other options? Does anyone know if the Technical
Institute of Bandung has an outside email connection?

If you email, I will summarize results to the net. Thanks-

					- Marty

The big thing these days is a server called 'qi' put out by the
folks at uxc.cso.uiuc.edu.  It has a client program, 'ph', which allows
users to update their own info.  I highly recommend it- but it may
not be perfect for your situation, since ph assumes Internet access
is available between client and server.

Another information server that exists solely to give e-mail address
info is Horton, which automatically builds a directory by periodic
polling of local hosts with finger, then gives access to the database
via the whois protocol (and soon the finger & qi/ph protocols, too).

You can even use a program called phquery with either Horton or qi to get 
your server's sendmail to forward mail sent to first-last@server.foo.edu 
to the proper e-mail address, whether or not the target address is
on the Internet.

I go to a small college, so small in fact, we do not have an internet

Is it possible to create a mail drop in an existing internet site and
periodicly upload and download the mail, via uucp or something?  This 
would at least give us mail access, even though a bit delayed.  Has
anyone done this?  Can anyone point me in the correct direction for
software and information?  I would probably be the most likely 
canidate for getting this accomplished on our system and would be
done in my spare time, but a lot can ge learned (hopefully).
We are within a local call to a larger university on internet.
Our current setup is an AT+T 3B2/600 running System V and a network of PC's
and ATT+T unix PC's networked under Starlan,  a modem
is connected to the system, but I do not know much about it's
configuration.  The unix that is loaded seems pretty stripped so please
be pretty explicit and all encompassing with what I need.  And of course
everything will need to be PD or at least free.  I will need

I'll try posting in this group.  What I'm trying to do is use
portable unix machines (e.g., Tadpole Sparcbook) to read mail.
Obviously one can log in to the home machine & read mail that
way, but it tends to be slow & run up phone costs.  Also, one
can use uucp, but it is complicated to set up -- also, I don't
really want the remote machine to look like a separate machine.

So, what I'd like to do is similar to what the Eudora mail app.
does on the mac.  It uses the Post-Office Protocol to read mail
and transfer it to the remote machine, where it can be read at
leisure.  It uses the SMTP protocol to send mail, but mail can
be queued on the remote machine & transferred in a batch.  This
is much more efficient both in terms of long distance charges
and in terms of usability -- i.e., you can compose mail on the
local machine with multiple windows, etc.

Question is, has anyone written a mail agent for unix that fulfills
these desires -- I've beeen looking around, so far no luck.

Thanks.

MCI Mail does offer it, but only to their own customers (at much higher cost
than they charge for email).  You cannot send them a letter from elsewhere to
be printed and mailed.

I never use my MCI Mail account for that; if I have something to be sent by
USPS, I just mail it myself.

Date: 31 Jul 92 17:39:09 GMT
Organization: Cirrus Logic Inc, Fremont, CA

There was a period of time long ago during which I found that one or
two intermediate UUCP sites were mangling From: headers quite badly.
During that period of time, I found it convenient to tell MH to send
replies to the return-path field.

Even today, there are a few sites that will change a fully-qualified
domain-form From: address into bang-path form.  Other sites will
happily prepend their name to this bang-path.  Yet others *won't*.  The
final result is what looks like a complete bang-path, but it has some
names missing in the middle.  At that point the mail bounces with
"unknown UUCP host".  (And we started with a nice FQDN, which is
supposed to be Immutable and Always Replyable.)

The reply-path seems to be usually much better behaved.

Fortunately I haven't found it necessary lately to use the reply-path
for replies, but I can see why some people might.

|     You are supposed to use "Reply-To:" if there is one, otherwise "From:".
|   Don't ever use "Return-Path:".  It is highly unreliable.

Perhaps a little explanation of why it's unreliable would do.  The cause
is, as almost always when we discuss malfunctioning mail software, a
virus known as "sendmail" which has infected a number of systems using
BSD Unix, and has yet to be given the proper attention, i.e. be removed.

The Return-Path header is supposed to be inserted upon final delivery of
the message, as far as SMTP is concerned.  This may not always be final
delivery to the user, though, but on the Internet, it is.  Now, this
bogus SMTP daemon and mail rapist, sendmail, inserts Return-Path headers
at will and does not obey the standard.  And, which is more, it believes
that when a message has a Return-Path header, it should not replace it
with a good one.

The Return-Path is thus meant to be reflect the envelope sender, as SMTP
sees it, and it should, theoretically, be as reliable as bouncing mail
at the SMTP level to bounce it at the application level.  Not so in
practice.  Thanks to sendmail.

Help stomp out sendmail in our lifetime.

Best regards,
</Erik>
