What a good idea. :-) In fact you have to use pdksh or SKsh right now
if you want to do some of the things that are missing or broken in the
various versions of Cnews for AmigaOS. I'm working albeit slowly on a
nice clean port of the current Cnews that will use ixemul.library and
pdksh. The idea is to get the Amiga changes rolled in to the standard
Cnews distribution so that Amiga users can always have the latest
version rather than getting stuck years behind as is the case now.

> kept, anyway?  Is it close to the latest Unix CNews version?

No. They are based on an early version of Cnews that had some bugs and
problems (no-one runs it anymore). In addition there are limitations
due to the fact that they aren't complete or exact ports. In theory
Amigafication could result in some benefits, but I'm counting on
getting a benefit out of using the shared ixemul.library to keep
executable size down, and the clever design of Cnews itself to keep
performance up.

I've used the same setup for several weeks now (without problems) and

The file in question, D.utopia22798, is 54750 bytes long, and at the

Any help would be appreciated!

  Hmm, I believe error code 10 means that the program you tried to run
wasn't found.  Try putting the full path to Ed or DME to run it, (I.e.
dh0:utilities/editors/dme) and see what happens.  Hope I helped!

	I know of several sites that are using somethoing other than uucp
to get their news :-).
	I was planning on setting up a gate since I know of a few people
that don't get the alt groups. I'd rather see a mailing list to serve a
few people than a large group. Since I see several high volume mailing
lists going through here, I've learned how inefficient a mailing list can
be. I also that in some cases there is just no alternative :-)

I would like this too.  Someone do it!  I would, but my C isn't that great

I have it all working %100 with new patches and getty. In fact it does
not even require gpfax to be running but will call gpfax, receive the
fax and then quit gpfax, and send local mail informing of the incoming
fax file.

The only thing required (beside my AREXX script which I will post to .patches)
is that getty must be modified to call GPFAX on "FAX" responsed instead of
the current +FCO (other wise you must have GPFAX running all the time as
there is not enough time to call GPFAX after receiving +FCON).

DMail should only use the Envelope "From " as a last resort.

Include this line in your uulib:.dmailrc to get appropriate behaviour:

set replyfields "Reply-To: From: Return-Path: From"

The Unix side of CNews would send email to the news administrator
informing them that a group had been created.

I don't see that Subject line in the newgroup.c program, tho.  I do see
"Subject: newgroup control message".  Is that the message you got?  If
so, then the reason was simply notification that some action had taken
place.  At the time, I didn't like the methods of making real email
work under both 1.3 and 2.04.  Hopefully wusel will be able to make
that change as well.  (The mail() subroutine should just call a real
mailer.  Not tough if you're sticking to 2.x AmigaDOS.)

Just a question.  I have tried AVM 1.3.3 and haven't been able to get
the default font of Courier to change even though I changed it to
several different fonts in S:AVMSetup.  Is this a feature? <grin>

Also, my editors seem to barf with an error 10 returncode..I tried ed
and DME.  Setuplines were bin:DME %s and bin:ED %s

Any suggestions?

any problems.
Is there any lurking fatal bug in this original version that should be
corrected, or are the various patches only cosmetic changes ??

Running several mailing lists I'm quite aware that the defacto standard
is to bounce mail to the Envelope "From " address.  Probably 95% of the
sites do this, including uunet.  I'm not aware of which RFC if any
specifies this behaviour.

Ah, i see.  How can i be sure?  Or how can i check this the next time
when happening again (i don't have the related mail/news-package
anymore)?

Do you want to know more about my setup/config?

Hmm, i can imagine what kind of problems this can/will cause indeed.

Nice to read!  Will it be sent out through xx.uucp.patches, when the
time is right?

Thanks for the info!

	Anyone out there using GPFAX and FaxGetty?  I seem to be
having trouble.  I got the New Patches put on Wuarcive but am still
am unable to get The FaxGetty to respond to Faxes or Datacalls when
I use the -F switch on the Getty.  If anyone is using a Supra Modem
with the new roms, could you send me your Init strings of the Modem
as well as any scripts you use to receive the faxes and enable
GPFax?

	To make the Getty story a bit short, the Modem answers
fine, but Getty never interprets the Call as Data or Fax.  It just
sits there and after 7 Secs it Hangs up the line.

Thanks

Carlos
