OK! Here's more info on that possible eater. I received mail today from
    nsc!voder!slgr!scgvaxd!trwrb!trwrba!ceup!ucsbcsl!chi!limes
regarding an earlier posting that got eaten. The exact text of my 'EAGLE'
message, before submitting to inews, follows. I include a [] for the
nonexistent :-) lineater anyway...could the blank line be a problem? I
thought it was only indented ones...

We're running 4.2 on a 750 with an RM03 and Eagle, using an SI controller
and hp.c driver.
Our present arrangement has /usr1 on the Eagle's 'h' partition, with ~208mb
space. I'd like to split /usr1 into two file systems, but using 'e' and 'f'
gives us ~55mb and ~150mb, an undesirable split.

I'd like to repartition 'e' and 'f' to get ~100mb each, leaving the other
partitions alone.  In the bargain, we of course get back 'd' at ~7mb.

Is there any compelling reason why I shouldn't do this, other than the fact
that I'll have a locally customized driver?

I don't know what's up. The only thing I can see in common is that the
path is the same from nsc thru trwrb. BUT I've submitted other news
articles (we've been on the net for ~1 mo.) and have had no trouble.

BTW: I'm sysadmin/newsadmin here, so better it should happen to me...
