[comp.unix.aux] A/UX bug reporting mail address

abm@oxydol.Apple.COM (Alan Mimms) (03/12/91)

For those of you who would like to report A/UX bugs: PLEASE stop sending
them to ME!  I'm delighted that you place such trust in my abilties, but
I do have a whole list of responsibilities that mostly don't include
logging bug reports (I have received six in the last week).  All reports
that I HAVE received to date have been sent to the appropriate folks.

However, I DO have a solution for you who find the few remaining bugs
in A/UX and wish to report them (:->).  You can send your bug reports
(PLEASE: in as much detail as possible) to the following address:

	reports@aux.support.apple.com

and they'll be read by a very good collection of folks, checked for
redundancy with existing bug reports, and added to our engineering bug
database.  This automatically reports them to the appropriate engineer(s).
I THINK the folks at aux.support.apple.com at least acknowledge receipt of
bug reports (if not, would it be possible to start, folks?).

Thanks a bunch.

	It would be nice if when they received the bug reports they
	could send us a note back saying they received it. I sent in a
	few bug/trouble reports, and never heard a whisper from anyone.

	Of course I posted the problem to the net, and at least I had
	confirmation that 1) Someone received it and 2) I wasn't the
	only one ;-).
