"foros1" running Notes! Gack, I'm being insulted!!!! Nope, "foros1" is running Netnews 2.10.1 (soon to switch to you-know-what), and I fixed the line-eater bug myself. "hpda", on the other hand, I have definite worries about. For some reason, their system never responds to "sendsys" requests, which seems to indicate that they're not running the latest software. (How long ago was "sendsys" invented?) Happy hacking! JR (John Rogers) {ihnp4,cbosgd,harpo,amd}!fortune!jr also fortune!foros1!{jr,root,news,usenet,uucp}
