Message-ID: <1990Oct4.205745.8867@odetics.com> Date: 4 Oct 90 20:57:45 GMT Reply-To: frank@odetics (Frank Merrow) Distribution: na Organization: Odetics, Inc., Anaheim, CA Lines: 12 Hi, We use "rn" as our news reader (if that matters). About half the time if I reply to a news artical ("r" or "R" command) the mail will bounce. I am not the news/mail administrator, but I have noticed that somethings system names get put together in odd ways. Forinstance I work on a local system called mars, but our mail/uucp server is odetics and I have seen references to mars.odetics.com in some messages. Our administrator thinks this OK. I think the two problems are related. Is my administrator correct (this is OK) or is this some kind of a configuration problem? Any hints would be appreciated. frank@odetics
