jrb@petro.UUCP (Jon Boede) (11/09/87)
I have for some time been trying to effect a "command execution" in place of
a machine alias (~/malises) rather than a user alias (~/aliases).
Unfortunately, a line like...
gateway: "|server-program"
in the malises file is completely ignored. I even tried hashing the malises
file but that didn't do any good, either. Nada...
What I want to do is field addresses like...
...!petro!gateway!jon@somesys.mydomain
Ultimately, I'll probably switch to something like smail and I'll then register
a domain with the uunet people, but for right now I'd really be interested in
opinions as to why maliases is broke.
Thanks!
