[comp.sys.apple] Robotics 212A

SEWALL@UCONNVM.BITNET (07/27/87)

I've had the darndest time figuring out how to route mail to pro-sol
from bitnet.  So far everything comes back "undelivered mail -- host
unknown."  I did get some advice from info-nets@oz.ai.mit.edu which
may work (how one figures out that the message should route via
uxc.cso.uiuc.edu from the routing on the messages I receive is beyond
my).

I noticed your comment about the Robotics 212A.  Although it's an
obsolete model, there probably are used ones for sale at flea markets.
I've had one for two years going on three that's never given me a
minutes trouble.  I rarely use it for other than local calls, but
it hasn't seemed to behave any differently than the real Hayes Smartmodem
1200 I have at home.

Recently, my department bought a Robotics Courier 2400 which I've been
using.  That is, as you said, a VERY NICE modem.

Long live the Courier! Yea, I have a Courier 2400, too. Problem is that I
bought it when it first came out. Have there been any upgrades? If so, are
they free? How does one get them?
Please reply via e-mail instead of the net. Thank you.

Hey!  Your letter made it here!  On my screen, the header shows:

        To: MDAVIS%PRO-SOL.CTS.COM@UXC.CSO.UIUC.EDU

That may or may not be what you originally typed, as some mailers have the
disgusting habit of modifying the To: field.  Now that you know that it works,
you should be able to reach a few of the luminaries here (Randy Brandt, Don
Elton, Dale Therio, Alan Bird, Bruce Webster, Ken Kashmarek, Dan Gookin, etc.)
