jonasf@kuling.UUCP (Jonas Flygare) (09/07/88)
I have encountered some rather disturbing problems with the uucp
on fich disk #152. First I found out the hard way that adresses are
on the format <host>!<host>!<user.. (My machine gurued..)
Then I managed to get it talking to my nearest host, but after receiving
the files (host->amiga) it guru again. I suspect it is something in
rmail that causes this, as the log shows. (see below)

Here is some headers for the received files.
Is it this that causes rmail to guru?? should it be kuling!jonasf?

I cannot spot anything irregular here, so any hints will be appreciated!
My amiga is a 2000 with 3 megs of memory, and arp (The one last posted on
the net)
If You have *any* hints, mail me! I *really* want to use my amiga for this!
(I have "the other" uucp, but i find this one "cleaner" to use, and
more like the "real thing". Except it doesn't work.. ;-)

Except it doesn't work.. ;-) It does work, but UUCP is a compilcated system, and it is not always easy to know what is causing the problem. In any case, a program should never guru, so I guess you are correct in assuming that there are some problems with UUCP. -- William P Loftus UUCP: wpl@burdvax.UUCP Unisys/Paoli Research Center ARPA: wpl@anarchy.prc.unisys.com PO Box 517 215-354-0614 (home) Paoli, PA 19301 215-648-7248 (work)
