[net.news.adm] Mailer on the fritz; News under revision

rsk@j.cc.purdue.edu (Wombat) (10/30/86)

We're revising our mailer to use 4.3 sendmail; we're installing a new
version of rn; and [soon] we'll be installing news 2.11.  All of this,
plus the usual crashes and network hangs and whatnot, will probably
make news/mail service to/thru PUCC a little flaky for a while.
In particular, I have outbound traffic for mod.computers.sequent which
is stuck, and I believe there's also a couple of [new] newsgroup names
we're not correctly passing yet.

Our machines are identified as "X.cc.purdue.edu", where X is one
of c, d, e, h, i, j, k, l, n, s, or t.  Please direct any questions
about this, or sympathy cards, to me.
