I'm posting this for a friend who doesn't have a feed to outside sites: Please send any replies to watmath!lion!mhgrinton.UUCP I'm wondering if anyone could tell me where I could get a copy of the MINIX sources online(by disk or e-mail). I have recently purchased a book containing the source code but don't really have the time to type in 10 000+ lines of code. I am using a PC and am very interested in seeing what MINIX can do. Any help or references would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike

How can a user have a domain? I though machines had'em.
If this is a mistake, could the author please post a fixed address?

You can get them for $80 from the Prentice-Hall Book (and software) publishing company. If you consider how much you get, this is a very cheap price. You order by phone (201) 767-5937 using a credit card. [ Note that the (800) 223-1360 number is NOT for personal orders ]. They are quoting delivery times of approximately 2 weeks.

I'm interested in this too. Please either post to the net (in addition to mailing his friend), or mail me at mju@m-net.UUCP.

Well, Andy; What punishment would you prescribe for the Wiz from N.Y.? .

The user doesn't have a domain. You're parsing it wrong. It's not watmath!lion!mhgrinton(.UUCP), it's (watmath!lion!mhgrinton).UUCP Of course, using bang paths usually implies a UUCP address, but some mailers do take this form, or at least make the address look like that after you get mail out of them.

It's not >watmath!lion!mhgrinton(.UUCP), it's (watmath!lion!mhgrinton).UUCP No mailer I've ever worked with would parse it that way. Roughly, what would happen is that it wouldn't find any @'s (which should take precedence), then find the ! and route mail to lion!mhgrinton.UUCP via "watmath". Very questionable. Try "mhgrinton%lion@watmath.UUCP" if you have trouble (and I suspect you might). Or did you mean "mhgrinton%lion.UUCP@watmath"? From your comment, probably the former. Have fun in any case! Andy
