Path: utzoo!utgpu!news-server.csri.toronto.edu!mailrus!wuarchive!udel!mmdf From: Vincent Archer Newsgroups: comp.os.minix Subject: Mail to me Message-ID: <20468@nigel.udel.EDU> Date: 29 May 90 09:35:27 GMT Sender: mmdf@udel.EDU Lines: 17 Somebody have been trying to reach me yesterday (or so it seems). Unfortunately, he used an address of the form: necntc!primerd!archer%segin4.segin.fr@prime.com (or semething like that. I'm not too sure about the @prime.com) Since Prime mailers do not understand uucp-style addressing, the message does not arrive there and bounce, saying that the user 'necntc!primerd!archer' does not exists (of course, it doesn't). So please do not use uucp-style addresses when replying (anyway, it's bad practice to mix uucp and internet styles, you're never sure on how it will be parsed).
