	Sort of.  This assumes that they actually write the addresses as
"foo.uucp".  Many mailers strip off pseudodomains before handling them.
(like .BITNET, .CSNET, .UUCP)  This saves unnecessary pounding of the
root nameservers every time you send mail to a pseudo-domain.
	Unfortunately, in DNS, having a wildcard MX like this will mean that
ALL mail too *.UUCP will go to the one site.  To further complicate matters,
there is no .UUCP DNS registrar, and I don't think there ever should be.
the .UUCP hack should just die a slow, painful, agonizing death, to be
replaced by more sane domainized addresses.  (like .edu, .com, .us, etc)

Oh, get real.  I've no sympathy at all for so-called sysadmins who query

listserver@ruth.uucp was not originally the correct address (but
list-server@ruth.uucp was...)  However, NOW, both work.  Don't give up!

The rest is right..... "subscribe amanda-l" in the body.

It is not a bad idea at all, but it has already been done.

It's called .ORG, .EDU, .COM, .INT, and .<YourCountry>.

How would registering under .UUCP be different from registering under any
other domain?

This is what happens when you have something in /waffle/system/refuse (see
ROADMAP.DOC) that matches these peoples' names.  (I'd guess that "the" is in
there, from the first one, can't guess what is causing the second one.)

If this flag is set, the file from /waffle/text with the same name as the user

Subject: Latest ISO 8859-1 Patch for Waffle available
Keywords: ISO8859-1 Waffle Patch
Date: Fri, 11 Dec 92 00:00:10 MET
Organization: The Blues Family

Hello there!

The latest ISOPATCH V1.02 for DOS Waffle for ISO 8859-1 is now available.

What does this patch do?

  The patch replaces rmail and Waffle compress in order to translate
  between IBM Code Page 850 (437) and ISO 8859-1 for outgoing and
  incoming mails and news. It also adds a MIME-header for mail.

Who needs the patch?

  Well, all the people who aren't satisfied using 7-bit US ASCII, but
  do well with ISO 8859-1. If you want to benefit as much as possible
  please use Code Page 850 on your PC.

  It let's you read/write characters like this:

        LATIN SMALL LETTER A GRAVE      : 
        LATIN SMALL LETTER A ACUTE      : 
        LATIN SMALL LETTER A CIRCUMFLEX : 
        LATIN SMALL LETTER A TILDE      : 
        LATIN SMALL LETTER A DIARESIS   : 
        LATIN SMALL LETTER A RING       : 
        LATIN SMALL LETTER N TILDE      : 

        COPYRIGHT SIGN                  : 

  and many, many more.

  Note:
    If you don't have an ISO 8859-1 compliant terminal right now, the
    characters above might look funny or like normal ASCII characters.
    This may also be the case, if any of the system in the news Path:
    between you and me cuts off the MSB.

  Why not just use the "native" PC character sets?

    Because the IBM Code Pages are not internationally standardized
    and if any software strips off the MSB, control characters are
    beeing created (< 32). If you strip off the MSB from an ISO 8859-1
    character between 160 to 255 you'll get a US ASCII character
    between 32 and 127. It much more save and accepted.

Where do I get it from?
  
  The patch can be copied from:

    ftp.th-darmstadt.de:/pub/machines/ms-dos/networking/waffle/isopatch.zip

  The complete C-sources are in the file:

    ftp.th-darmstadt.de:/pub/machines/ms-dos/networking/waffle/isosrc.zip

Is this shareware?

  No, it's freeware! That means you can use it for free. You can use
  the programs and the sources for anything you want, but leave the
  copyright information intact.

Have fun!

        Kosta

\bin\NEWUSER.BAT comes to mind:

@echo off
MKDIR F:\USER\%1 > NUL:
COPY E:\SYSTEM\JOIN.NEW F:\USER\%1\join > NUL:
RMAIL -fsysop "-sWelcome Aboard" %1 < E:\SYSTEM\WELCOME.NEW

and \extern\_systems :

mail    /command="E:\bin\RMAIL -u%A %i"
news    /command="E:\bin\RNEWS -u%A"
arclist /command="E:\bin\ARCLIST %i"

execute /exit=140
shell   /command="C:\DRDOS\COMMAND"
command /command="C:\DRDOS\COMMAND /c %i"
newuser /shell  /command="E:\BIN\NEWUSER %A"


Modify as desired to match your directory structure.  This can
used as a springboard for doing all sorts of strange stuff to a

Yes.  His statement that he doesn't take the time to read the newsgroup
but expected answers was rather odd and maybe selfish.  That is why I
never bothered replying to him directly.  :)   You are right.  He

It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it.

Check with your host first.  If everything looks ok on your end
(double check what's actually IN the spool files before they go out)
then the problem may be at their end.

i'm not sure, but i'd think this line in your FEEDS file is wrong... 
from what your STATIC file says, YOU are srconstl... who is your FEED?? 
that's who is supposed to be listed here... since you are srconstl, the 
software is smart enuff to not batch it to its self...

Well, several months ago, someone mentioned on alt.bbs that they were involved
in the QWK II spec.  I sent him email asking if I could help them design it so
that USENET format was supported.  He essentially told me to buzz off, because
they were only interested in Fido.

It turns out he isn't. Also, after having seen his static file, and
discussing his other system parts, I don't understand why he is getting
the result he is. (?) My logs show NOBODY, but my From line (mail path)
properly shows my system. His, on the other hand, says 'somewhere.'

I've been trying to make my system do it, but can't seem to. Can someone
suggest another idea about why this is happening to him? Not the NOBODY
in the logs part, the mail path 'somewhere' is the problem.
