Lines: 16 Suggestion to combat the domain-specification problem: Have inews look for ".ARPA" or ".UUCP" (actually, to be precise, any "." after an "@", right?) in the message-id. If it's there, remove it. That way news will reject duplicate articles with different domains (which will happen anytime sri-unix gateways to arpa and it somehow filters back). It shouldn't be difficult, just a few lines in inews's history-lookup. - Chris -- In-Real-Life: Chris Torek, Univ of MD Comp Sci UUCP: {seismo,allegra,brl-bmd}!umcp-cs!chris CSNet: chris@umcp-cs ARPA: chris.umcp-cs@UDel-Relay
