Galloway Jr.) Newsgroups: comp.unix.questions,comp.unix.aux,apple.aux Subject: How to make mail batch uucp requests? (on A/UX 2.0) Keywords: uucp mail A/UX Message-ID: <39749@apple.Apple.COM> Date: 23 Mar 90 00:20:55 GMT Organization: Galloway Research Lines: 17 Now that I have uucp and mail working on my A/UX system there remains (at least) one more problem. Namely that whenever I finish a mail (actually mailx) session it immediately sticks in a uucp request and dials the phone etc. What I want is to have it just leave the requests around and have cron fire up uucico every N hours to poll my feed (fernwood). To allow the cron started uucico to work anytime I need an ANY on the L.sys line, but that allows mail to execute immediately as well. There must be a solution. (I'll likely have the same problem with postnews etc when I get news setup). Whats the answer? (please e-mail (in addition to or instead of posting) since I do not read all of these groups) thanks! -jrg -- internet jrg@apple.com John R.
