[net.news.adm] admin-related rn question

rcj@burl.UUCP (Curtis Jackson) (08/21/85)

I am netnews admin on burl, and have a slight problem.  I have the
software for sendmail, pathalias, et. al.; but I have just been informed
that the language/compiler I am now writing is on the critical path
for about 4 other software products in development now.  I don't have
time to get all this stuff up right now.

My problem is, my users LOVE rn; but when they 'r' (reply) to an article
they only get a barebones address:

foo@bar

Since I don't have the routing software in, they have to find the
article and get the info to change this into:

ihnp4!seismo!....!foo!bar

My question is:  Does anyone know if and how I can tell rn to give me
the full return path (or some reasonable facsimile thereof) for return
mail?

Thanks very much,
