Ahem, now, after lots of fussing, I have figured out that the service names file is now overriding domain names. How do I stop it? (How do I keep listserv from receiving another?) I want mail to various internet sites to go to MY SMTP, dammit. *flame on* I am not young enough to wait for mail from my local lists to go upstream to be distributed. I (and my boss's boss) have not yet received items that were posted to local lists 9 hours ago, even though listserv (here) processed it and rscs sent it to arizvm1 immediately. As a side comment, just think how much increased traffic this is going to put on the core nodes & sites that are interbit gateways, in cases of systems like ours that were sending things locally. And please dont make the comment that we should have an entry in domain names (service names), because it would not fix the problem and would cause other problems when we drop out of bitnet. jr (john riehl) (grumble, mumble, grumble, mumble) (okay, flame off)
