suggestion box needed

[wombat at ccvaxa.UUCP]

If you're willing to set up a notesfile on your system, notes supports
anonymous notes. It requires entries for 'notes' and 'anon' in your password
file, but neither needs to be passwordless. You just need to turn on
anonymous notes in the notesfile.

If the suggestion box isn't meant to be read by most of your users, you even
disguise the fact that it's going to a notesfile (some people really freak
at the mere mention of notes) by using nfpipe. Just build a front-end that
throws them into an editor to write up their suggestion and ships the result
off to the notesfile with nfprint -a (-a to make it anonymous).

Of course, someone who is determined to find out who submitted a suggestion
can always go through accounting files to find out who was running nfprint
at the time the note was submitted.


"Our first order of business will be to find a deranged alchemist, which
should not be very difficult. China," said Master Li, "is overstocked
with deranged alchemists."
