[comp.os.msdos.misc] Waffle Questions

hell@fugazi.in-berlin.de (Steffen Hellwig) (12/07/90)

Hi you all !

I'm running Waffle163 for a few days and I have got some Questions:

Is it poosible to add the "Lines" line to the Mail and Message headers
which Waffle produces ?

Is there another protocol for the uucp program ? G-Protocol is soooo slow !

What's the real meaning of the "smarthost" line in the Waffle static-file ?
(The Docs tell me, that this is the host which can handle all Mails to
 any Systems which are not known by Waffle. But the Mails I post wont not
 leave my System.)

Any kind of information will be welcommed.
Thank You !

  You should probably ask Tom Dell to incorporate that in a future 
update.  His UUCP address is in the documentation.

  No.  G is it for now anyway.

  The smarthost is USUALLY the site that provides your news feed.  If
you get your feed from "orca" then you should use that in the smarthost
line.  If, however, "orca"'s mailer doesn't undertsand domain addressing 
then you should ask the administrator of that system who HIS smarthost is
and use a bang-path instead (orca!smartsystem).
