It allows you to control all of your downstream feeds with just one file instead of numerous *sendbatch scripts and cron entries. Further, it'll also prevent UUCP spool areas from blowing out - it'll not execute "batch" unless the queue for a specific site is smaller than some per-site limit, and there's more than 5 Mb on your uucp spool area. I woulda posted to mod.sources and included a little more documentation, but I'm leaving this site and may not be accessible for a while. I hope it helps some people out there. -- Chris Lewis, Until tomorrow: {pyramid|watmath|utcsri|decvax|allegra|linus|ihnp4}!utzoo! {utcsri|cbosgd}!utcs! {yetti|lsuc|genat|mot|oakhill}! ... mnetor!clewis Monday: utzoo!spectrix!clewis (I hope) BELL: (416)-475-8980 ext. 321
