Preface:  I am now reading the document "Introduction to the Internet
Protocols" dated 3 July 1987 by Charles L. Hedrick.

Question #1: Am I on the right track towards conformity ("what is
conformity?")

Q #2:  Do uucp sites have the ability to get _conformant_?

Q #3:  I am running pathalias and smail 2.5 (about a month now).  Did I
become 822 conformant and not know it ;-?

-----
To all of you folks who thought this topic of discussion was a TOTAL waste
of bandwidth, I have been sitting here learning a few things.  Don't go
away with a sense of disgust...pleaseeee.  There are some of us out here
still learning the ropes.  And aint it all worth it somehow 8-)

Another guy who belongs to and organization that neither has the money nor
the inclination to be ARPA conformant ("what is conformity?") or did I ask
that once already ;-)  (see Q #1) for you real serious type.
