FAQ, by Marc SCHAEFER,
5a. MAIL to NEWS Gateway.
It is very easy to set up a (working but ugly) Mail to News gateway. For example you want all mail to user "alphanet-general" to be posted automatically on alphanet.general. Simply add the following lines to your UULIB:aliases file :
alphanet-general: "|postnews -R UULIB:alphanet-general-refs"
Also create the "UULIB:alphanet-general-refs file on the following skeleton:
Newsgroups: alphanet.general Distribution: alphanet Sender: alphanet-general@alphanet.ch (Mail to News gateway)
This will work easily, but is not always of a pretty sight. Please note that such gatewaying should be limited to your network and never transmitted through news. There are packages which are best suited for that purpose.
5b. NEWS to MAIL Gateway
CNEWS users may want to use newsgate/mailgate, posted to .patches some time ago (available at litamiga /pub/amiga/uucp, or at alphanet). Contact the author, wusel@hactar.hanse.de, if you have problems locating a copy. AmigaUUCP 1.16D users should find Newsgate.lha on litamiga.epfl.ch /pub/amiga/uucp directory, or contact its author postmaster@megalith.miami.fl.us.
