They are a long distance call away, so the intention was to let them get the majority of their news locally, but to have an ihave/sendme link with me to make sure they didn't miss anything. We'd like to be able to have the message-ids go into a file that basically sits around for about three days before becoming the contents of an ihave message to their site. I think I can kludge something into the script I run each hour, between the processing of incoming news with "rnews -U" and the batching process, but that seems kinda ugly. Is there a simple way to do this? -- Ron Heiby, heiby@mcdchg.UUCP Moderator: comp.newprod & comp.unix "I know engineers. They love to change things." McCoy
