I've so far received over a hundred of the following. Somebody want
to try to explain just what went wrong?
I'm trying to limit the damage by preventing the forwarding of the
mail to uflorida.
I'm not about to send any mail on this one, I might create more of the
same!

Simtel20 is a Decsystem 20 with 36 bit words. Image mode transfers thus
leave a garbage nibble in every fourth byte when received by an 8 bit byte
machine. If this sounds like what is happenning to you try
type L 8
instead of type i.david@ms.uky.edu (David Herron -- One of the vertebrae) (05/03/89)

ESPECIALLY since ukma and uflorida don't have a UUCP link but DO have a news link. Remember boys and girls -- it's Evil And Rude to use the Path: line as a mail address... When a piece of mail arrives here for uflorida it is re-routed, by only looking at the first site mentioned Paul, as so: | 5 - g:david --> /mmdfstuff/locmachine/dbmedit dbmedit> print uflorida.uucp key "uflorida.uucp": table "chan-uucp": value "mailrus!uflorida!%s" dbmedit> print novavax.uucp key "novavax.uucp": table "chan-uucp": value "mailrus!uflorida!novavax!%s" And by itself that's a Good Thing since mailrus & uflorida have a UUCP link, or so their respective map entries say. -- <- David Herron; an MMDF guy <david@ms.uky.edu> <- ska: David le casse\*' {rutgers,uunet}!ukma!david, david@UKMA.BITNET <- By all accounts, Cyprus (or was it Crete?) was covered with trees at one time <- -- Until they discovered Bronze
