[comp.mail.misc] Questions about maps

joe@bram.UUCP (Joe Saladino) (07/15/90)

1.	When do the maps get sent out?  I got some from france, denmark, germany
	but not a thing from the states.

2.	Can you let me know how I can get a copy of pathalias and some docs
	to get it installed on my system so it can be a little smarter?

3.	How are you notified when you site is registered.  I sent the info in
	about 3 weeks ago.

4.	Where should you store the maps once you unpack them?  If I leave them
	in comp.mail.maps will they get killed off after a few days or does
	expire only delete numbered files?

Thanks for the help,

I _just_ rceived some U.S. maps.  It seems that they come in around the 15th
of the month, with a smattering of maps from outside the U.S.  I received a
load of 'foreign' maps on the 8th of July, also.

I have never been notified.  The maps are the key.  Also, if you have Internet
access, you can 'telnet jade.berkeley.edu 117' and use the upath command
(upath sitename).  If there's a current map entry, the path will be shown.
There are many features to this service.  Type '?' to get an idea.
