mjk@tty3b.UUCP (Mike Kelly) (11/01/84)
In replies to my postings and in followup postings, there is always a References: field that has names like <505@tty3b.UUCP>. If I want to find that article, how can I use the Reference name? Our articles are listed in serial order, so I can't just go to /netnews/spool/net/politics/505, for example. (In this case, the article was in the file /netnews/spool/net/politics/4166). The only solution I've come up with is to go to the spool directory for the newsgroup and grep(1) for the reference number. This seems pretty poor. Am I missing something? Mike Kelly
