To Mr Hutchison of this site...

You have taken a site name which was already in use.  There is a
machine inside AT&T, properly registered with that name.  Your site's
name will have to change in order to become involved in Usenet.  When
I tried to reply to you, it went via normal pathalias routing into
AT&T, which bounced the note back at me due to there being no such
user.

The problem with your attempts to get news software from osu-cis are
due to having used the wrong filenames; the news software and patch
pieces are named with a varying component of digits, rather than
letters, e.g., 2.11news.01.Z is correct, not 2.11news.aa.Z.

[If someone knows what/where this new `Grumpy' is, and/or can locate
 Mr Hutchison, could you please relay this to him?  Thanx...]
