[news.admin] having trouble posting to mod.computers.vax

ted@blia.BLI.COM (Ted Marshall) (12/22/86)

Help! I am having trouble with articles I am mailing to the moderator of
mod.computers.vax. According to responses I am getting from other sites,
my messages are appearing both on arpa's INFO-VAX mailing list and USENET's
newsgroup. However, the USENET articles never get back to my site. I am
using the address "info-vax@sri-kl.arpa" for my submissions. My site is
UUCP only but I believe that our mailer is set up to send messages with
arpa addresses to an arpa site for remailing.

When I asked for help on the newsgroup, one person said that the problem
was the path string being generated either by our mailer or the arpa
remailer (...!ucbvax!ted@cgl.ucsf.edu@blia.UUCP where ted is my user name
and blia is my site name). This doesn't seem to be the problem as his
posting and several others since have had similar path syntax
(user@xxx.arpa@site.UUCP).

Also, I know the arpa gateway is working as I can send and receive mail
to arpa sites.

Anyone on this newsgroup have any ideas on why this is happening?

Thanks in advance for any help.
