Wanted: One Internet computer to act as MX for a single-user ultra-low-volume UUCP machine. Send maybe 5 mail messages per week (maybe more when my address no longer contains !'s)... plus about 6-8 news conferences (which I could continue to recieve from my local UUCP site). Sacramento area preferable, but any and all responses are appreciated. (Actually, the only Internet site in Sacramento is csusac, I think, and "for political reasons" they will not provide MX service). Thanks in advance. My knowledge of mail matters is somewhat limited (I've only been doing this about a month now). You must use those evil bang paths to reach me.... --Matt P.S. Has anyone compiled a list of the internet sites that are willing to MX? I know...I know. *Another* list to be maintained. I'd be willing to volunteer if I get enough e-mail responses. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mathew Di Nicola Sacramento, CA, USA UUCP= pacbell!sactoh0!cds1!matt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In general the University of Illinois' Computing Services Office is willing to provide MX forwarding service for sites that extend our UUCP connectivity. This means a willingness to establish bi-directional UUCP links, run reasonably intelligent mail software, and to pass third-party mail. TrailBlazer Plus modems are a big win. /pbp -- Paul Pomes UUCP: {att,iuvax,uunet}!uiucuxc!paul Internet, BITNET: paul@uxc.cso.uiuc.edu US Mail: UofIllinois, CSO, 1304 W Springfield Ave, Urbana, IL 61801-2987
