I'm getting all sorts of mail about two articles I posted being
truncated along the way. These weren't eaten at the front, but
suffered a loss from the back end. I don't know if this is related to
the fact that I've brought up news 2.10.2 at our site, but I'd
certainly like to track this down.
If you've received any articles posted from "gatech" or "gitpyr" with a
posting version of 2.10.2, please let me know if they arrived intact or
truncated. I'd especially like to know about the following two
articles. Please include the path the article took to your site.
First article as received at one site:
Relay-Version: version B 2.10.1 6/24/83; site rabbit.UUCP
Posting-Version: version B 2.10.2 9/17/84; site gatech.UUCP
