[net.micro.mac] prelude to results of net.sources.mac opinion poll

paul@greipa.UUCP (Paul A. Vixie) (11/24/85)

I have received 110 replies.  After editing out all the mail headers
except From:, Date: and Organization:, and slicing off .signature data,
the total is 78Kb.  I will not post the raw data unless at least three
people ask me to do so - fewer copies than that, I'll send by mail.

Interesting but useless: the Harvard mailer is confused.  Every message
I got through them says it was from "...harvard!uucp (Black Hole)".  Mailers
in general are confused: half of them have from lines of the form "From:
path (real name)", while the other half are "From: real name <path>".  Some
mailers like to put "Received:" *after* the "From:", some *before*.  Many
sites don't have Organization: lines at all.  lll-crg and pesnta send each
message to themselves once before forwarding it (they are in the path twice).

I'm not in a building where I can print this stuff out, so the "statistics"
I've promised will be delayed a few days. However, I've included a "sort -u"
of all the "Organization:" and "From:" lines for those of you who want to see
that your messages actually arrived.  Note that a fair number of people from
Europe responded.

greipa no longer talks to qantel or dual - if you have had mail bounced back,
resend through {decwrl,pyramid,pyrcorp,pesnta,texsun,bene}!greipa!paul.  Sorry
for that inconvenience and for the delay in getting these statistics out... it
turned out to be a bigger job than I'd thought.
