Subject: reaching me & UUCP
In a posting that some of you will have seen, I say:

I subsequently have found that it may not be my fault, but someone else's
that the distribution is getting mangled. So, I'll try posting this via
info-cpm@wsmr-simtel20.armty.mil. If anyone in either Europe or Australia
or New Zealand sees this, please E-mail me at the addresses below.
Now, back on topic .....

The intent was to use MAIL.COM as a common interface, that's why news
gets dumped into .MAI files. In essence what you're looking for is a
replacement for MAIL.COM that has a better user interface, and can
invoke an editor. Suffice it to say that this is on my list of things
to do, and I have a proposed solution that ought to work. It may just
take a while.

Paul, if you see this, check out the addresses in the signature.
On a further topic, I saw a posting from someone called Thorbejorn
(sorry, I spelled it wrong :-( ), and tried posting a reply. As before,
my reply will not reach Europe because of the "distribution" problem.
Can you re-post your message, and I'll try to get a reply back to you
about it.
