If replying via the path is not correct, then recnews should just use the last system name and expect 'delivermail' or its equiv to figure it out. In short, having news be smarter than mail about net addresses is not the way to go. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
