Does anybody have "sendmail" that would work on a Masscomp
running RTU V3.1B, and V1.2 compilers ?

MASSCOMP makes a version of sendmail that is not yet considered official. We have been running the unofficial (and unsupported, I might add) version for about the last year. At that time we were running RTU 3.1 and V1.1 compilers, I think, though we're now at RTU 4.0beta, with V1.4 prelim. compilers. It has had some problems, (for instance, it doesn't handle correctly addresses with both !'s and @'s on the same line, and since the addresses it gets usually look like that...), but is mostly usable for local mail. That's why we hounded them for a copy in the first place. Without sendmail, our MASSCOMP would be unable to communicate with the rest of our world (mostly Suns), and the odds are against Sun wanting to supply a MASSCOMP-compatible mailer :-). From what I understand, RTU 4.0 (early summer 88?) is going to include Sendmail. The 4.0 beta kit we got included sendmail, but it was so broken (the install kit had bad files in it, and put things in bad places - i.e. trashed /bin/mail, etc.) we had to claw our way back to our unsupported prerelease version. They later told me that sendmail was not supposed to be included in the beta release, and to ignore it. Ha! These people printed and sent me some of the best documentation on the sendmail config file I've ever seen, and then they say, "oops, we didn't mean to print that and send it to you." I think that it was just busted, and rather than getting into problems fixing it for everyone they just said "sorry, just ignore that stuff." Remember, this will be (is?) their first official release of sendmail, so many of their customers may never have seen sendmail before. Anyway, when they fix it, you'll have it. BTW, we had to really pester them for our prerelease version. I don't expect they'll be too anxious to give it to anyone, especially if the official release is right around the corner. -steve /* Steve Groom, MS 168-522, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA 91109 * Internet: stevo@elroy.jpl.nasa.gov UUCP: {ames,cit-vax}!elroy!stevo * Disclaimer: (thick German accent) "I know noothingg!

An article in comp.sys.masscomp said that the supported mailer for RTU4.0 will be MMDF, and that sendmail will probably be available as an unsupported program. /r$ -- Please send comp.sources.unix-related mail to rsalz@uunet.uu.net.
