I once saw a book on uucp communications. It had the word "nutshell" in the title, and I think it had a picture of an acorn on the cover. Does anyone know where I can get this book or something else that describes how to configure uucp on unix? I prefer responses to be posted, but email to the address below is also ok. Sending email to the address in the header will not work. Thanks.

There are really two Nutshell handbooks on UUCP. One is called "Managing UUCP and Netnews", the other is "Using UUCP and Netnews". Both are entries in O'Reilly and Associates' series of Nutshell handbooks which cover a wide range of Unix-related subjects including X-Windows, Unix in general, and much more. I don't have the address of O'Reilly handy, unfortunately, but I'll post a followup regarding their address. > Thanks. > > Tom Reingold You're welcome! 8-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [- O] Rick Stevens ?

I just noticed that /bin/mail will send mail with a bogus return address if you want it to. Just set the LOGNAME variable to whatever you want. Is this a glaring bug that everyone knows about? Or is it something we have to put up with for some reason.
