I don't have time to trace this one myself, so I'd appreciate any leads. If I try to send mail (or more usually reply to a news message) and the address is long the uux of the mail to the first remote site fails. By "long" I mean addresses over about a line and a third (is that about 128 bytes??). There is no error message; at the time all looks ok. But later on I will find things like C.K?#xx!A0782 files in the /usr/spool/uucp dir. I do NOT have a site called K?#xx! or any of the other things I've seen there!!! Having just noticed that it seems to have something to do with 128, I'd have a wild guess and say that a buffer is overflowing. Does anyone know where? -- ++jim !ukc!hirst1!taurus!jr ++jim
