I have been having some difficulties in Pine for the past two days.  Some of
the owrds and letters I type, don't show up on the screen after I've typed
them.  And other funny stuff I cant describe because its too early to
concentrate.

Re #202: Is it that particular letters never show up in pine
(for example, the letter 'n' never showing up) or does it appear
to be random (sometimes 'n' shows up and sometimes it doesn't)?

Well, John, now that I am more alert abd graphically articulate, its working
and I dont recall.  It seems like it was random disappearing letters or parts
of words, but I'm not really sure.  In addition, after a while, I was getting
letter strings instead of the printed word.  But that too, has cleared up.
Thanks to whoever took care of it.

The last time we had problems like the above with modems was with the newer
models running at 2400.  If you make sure your error-correction is on on your
modem, it works much better.  There is no configuration thing for this; the
new modems just don't like running with no error-correction.

        I have my terminial emulator (Procomm) take the 14.4 modem
down to 9600 before dialing the 9600 lines, down to 2400 before 
dialing the 2400 lines.  That seems to give best results for me.

Grex's mail system has been configured to reject mail that claims to come
from systems that don't exist.  This should reduce spam.    -jdw

I don't know much about this.  It certainly won't eliminate all spam.

TS's message is from dmr.ca.  If you do "!host dmr.ca" it says
 dmr.ca mail is handled by mail.dmr.ca
 dmr.ca mail is handled by mail.montreal.istar.net
So evidentally mail sent to dmr.ca goes someplace.  That means it is legal
as far as the mail blocks are concerned.  A lot of spam these days does
not include a legal return address.  But some does.

if mail with neither origin nor destination of grex is blocked, then will i
not receive mail fprwarded from another account to grex without a to: line
including grex?
scg
response 217 of 283: Mark Unseen   Nov 24 04:19 UTC 1997

The To: line is just part of the message text, and has nothing to do with
where the mail protocols think the message is going.  Most mail programs put
on a To: line so that the reader can tell who the message is for.  As long
as the RCPT line in the SMTP transaction says to deliver it to you on Grex,
it will work fine.

TS, there is *no* automated system which will filter out all junk email like
that, without running a serious risk of filtering out wanted, non-junk email.
After all, the real differnce between a marketing mailing list sending junk
mail to 60000 people who haven't asked for it & (say) the hammered-dulcimer
lists I subscribe to is really only that those receiving the latter have asked
to be put on the list.  (And there are only a couple of hundred recipients
on the dulcimer lists, of course.)

        i'm still getting gibberish across the bottom of my screen at least
once a night. sometimes hitting space gets past it and then it's okay, other
times i have to log off and redial. i went to change and checked. i was set
for 24 lines but i only have 78 across. when i try to run the key function
it does to gibberish as soon as i hit backspace. any suggestions?

response 222 of 283: Mark Unseen   Nov 25 04:08 UTC 1997

        the screen just went nuts. it was printing line after line of
gibberish and wouldn't respond to any keys. i had to hang up to stop it.

actually, i was asking about mail forwarded to grex from another site, which
was not originally addressed to other@cyberspace.org.

Picospan keeps telling me

   mkids too small

and sometimes

   mkfds too small

whenever I read a response tonight.  (Actually it wasn't doing it until a few
minutes ago.)  (I should have said "whenever I read an item".)
