[comp.sys.apple] Various and sundry stuph...

FFDDO@ALASKA noted the problem with multiple postings of messages.  I have this
problem, too.  We also go through SMTP@INTERBITGATE.  I believe that the reason
this happens is that there are two different paths from some of the services to
our systems.  They are both forwarding net mail to out mailers.  That's as good
a guess as I can come up with.           Make that OUR mailers.

As far as emotional expressions being sent over the line...

How's that for friendly??

:-}

Also... something that's bothered me (and thousands of others, I'm sure) is
the attitude Apple has sometimes.  They just assume that we all love throwing
our money in their direction, so why should they go out of their way to improve
things for us??

My case in point... AppleWorks!  WHY CAN'T YOU HIT RESET!?!?!?  This program
(all $250 non-worth of it) is in at least it's fifth or sixth version!  Why
doesn't Apple pull its head out and realize that people don't want to use buggy
software!?  "Oh, who ever hits RESET anyway..."  Jeez!

Someone mentioned "DSZ".  Is there REALLY a ZMODEM program for Apple?
Many in the modem world have been looking for this capability for a LONG time.

Take care...
