Hello Unix experts,
Assume two 3B2/Sys V 3.2.2.
Machine A is networked with Wollongong TCP/IP.
Machine B is connected to machine A via uucp.
Sending mail from the world to user on B is possible with addresses like
user%B.uucp at A
(sendmail on machine A handles things properly).
However, attempting mail from B to the world with addresses like
A!user at ...
doesn't work. The uucp protocol invokes rmail on machine A which cannot
handle the internet address user at ....
There must be a clean solution to this (e.g., somehow invoke sendmail through
the uucp protocol). Advice would be greatly appreciated!
