[net.news] ARPA gateway

lauren@vortex.UUCP (Lauren Weinstein) (11/06/84)

All forwarding to/from ARPA via sri-unix has stopped indefinitely.
They are changing machines, changing systems, changing net interfaces,
changing mail processing programs, and just about everything else.

It is not clear when or if services will be restored, or to what
extent.

I'd start looking for another forwarding agent just to be safe
if I were you.

The brl-tgr has begun forwarding ARPA mailling lists that we
host on our machines, replacing the gateway at SRI-UNIX.
The lists currently being forwarded are:

	info-c
	info-cpm
	info-hams	(actually on Simtel-20)
	info-micro
	info-music
	info-unix
	unix-wizards

The gateway is getting steadily better as time goes on.  My
major problem now is to try and deal with return addresses.
I will be happy to forward other mailling lists as well (two
way news interconnect).  It will still be a little while before
mail replies work.

On a related topic, I am experimenting with an Internet domain
server and should be in a position to start serving up UUCP domain
information to the Internet in a few weeks.
