Talk about standing out in the cold peering through the glass at the banquet in front of the warm fire. I received this from the postmaster at U Cal, Santa Cruz |>Now this one IS a dandy! How to reply to mail when the sender's own |>system regards him as "unknown"!!!! |> |>>Return-Path: <unknown@ucscb> |>>Organization: University of California, Santa Cruz; CATS |>>Cc: |>> |>>Please explain what Apple2-L is and how I can get on it. |>> |>>Thank you very much (I'm a new user to RN since the beginning of the school |>>year). | | |You're going to like this one....all of the UCSCx where x is a single letter |machines are Unix nodes. B is an "open access" machine and is badly |overloaded. The last thing it needs is people chatting on Bitnet. |It IS networked to our other machines, however, which gives it "write |only" access to Bitnet. --------------------- Disclaimer: My employer often is appalled by my opinions, and my facts may be only vaguely right <slippery when wet>.
