Hello everyone. I've got something here for those of you who have been complaining about the mailers on the various machines, especially at Rutgers. As you can see from the header above, I'm posting from University of Kentucky's engineering machine. My address is vnend@engr.uky.edu. Below you will find the header to a message that appeared in my mailbox a couple of weeks ago. Now, both ukma (our news feed) and rutgers are backbone machines, and we even have a news feed. But when mail sent to vnend@rutgers.edu makes it here I start worrying that the machines have come alive! :-) Later, Vnend [For your amazement and edification...] Received: from l.ecc.engr.uky.edu by a.ecc.engr.uky.edu id aa06063; 7 Sep 88 18:16 CDT Received: from g.ms.uky.edu by l.ecc.engr.uky.edu id aa05933; 7 Sep 88 18:02 CDT Received: from rutgers by g.ukma.UUCP id aa01296; 7 Sep 88 19:05 EDT Received: from SUN.COM by rutgers.edu (5.59/1.15) id AA21849; Wed, 7 Sep 88 13:49:46 EDT Received: from sun.Sun.COM by Sun.COM (4.0/SMI-4.0) id AA03476; Wed, 7 Sep 88 10:46:09 PDT Received: from quintus.UUCP by sun.Sun.COM (4.0/SMI-4.0) id AA14492; Wed, 7 Sep 88 10:50:00 PDT Received: from trantor.quintus.com (trantor) by quintus.com (4.12/SMI-2.0) id AA06649; Wed, 7 Sep 88 10:15:56 pdt Return-Path: <laurie@trantor> Received: by trantor.quintus.com (3.2/SMI-2.2) id AA13808; Wed, 7 Sep 88 10:15:03 PDT Message-Id: <8809071715.AA13808@trantor.quintus.com> Date: Wed 7 Sep 1988 09:48:49 PDT From: Laurie Cavanaugh <laurie@quintus.com> To: vnend@rutgers.edu Subject: Reply to: More about the War -- Later y'all, {vnend@engr, cn0001dj@ukcc, mc.david@ukpr}.uky.edu; Vnend: Ignorance is the Mother of Adventure. {any vertibrae}!ukma!ukecc!vnend The strength of the sky is the wind.

Someone(s) along the line, probably Sun, clobbered the To_ line, but the rmails kept it going in the right direction. It would of passed through here, but my local delivery agent probably would have choked if the final stop were here. -- Larry Blair ames!vsi1!lmb lmb%vsi1@ames.arc.nasa.gov
