Summary: Is Trailblazer compress any use with uucp for mail transfer? Keywords: uucp, Trailblazer, LZW, data compression Message-ID: <1990Jul4.195351.9324@tsa.co.uk> Date: 4 Jul 90 19:53:51 GMT Reply-To: domo@tsa.co.uk (Dominic Dunlop) Followup-To: comp.mail.uucp Organization: The Standard Answer Ltd. Lines: 7 Is Trailblazer compress any use with uucp for mail transfer? Although I'm pretty sure it would be counter-productive with compressed news batches, is there likely to be any increase in throughput if I have my Trailblazer attempt to negotiate compression when exchanging plaintext mail with sites which are not newsfeeds? Has anybody run tests? Was it a win? -- Dominic Dunlop
