[comp.mail.uucp] BAD READ

wengland@stephsf.stephsf.com (Bill England) (10/04/90)

This is an intermitant problem. A log and debug uucico shows the following;

------

  This problem _never_ occures when using the Tbit in Pep mode.
  It occures about 75% of the time when using the tbit at 2400 baud.
  It only seems to be a problem with mail and not news.
  It has never failed with 'S' or other types, only 'C'.

  ( Tbit echo suppresion is turned on.  I don't believe it would
    affect this problem though. )
  
  Thanks for any suggestions/comments ...

What is usually the cause of the 'BAD READ (expected 'C' got FAIL)' 
message from BNU (g protocol forced)?

Thanx in advance...
