The Lounge What is on Your Mind? Where did you meet UNIX for a first time? Post 302430722 by rhfrommn on Friday 18th of June 2010 12:44:09 PM
Old 06-18-2010
I started on a SunOS 4.something system in 1990 at Ohio State University. The department had Sun workstations for the grad students to use. The first day I figured out how to send an email and told my friend Jason I was now working on a Sun computer which I hadn't ever used before. He wrote back that I should type "rm -rf *" to speed the system up a bunch. I typed it in but before hitting enter asked one of the other guys what it would do. His yelp of fear and leap toward the delete key told me all I needed to know . . . . Smilie

NAME
pygn2m - Python Gateway news to mail SYNOPSIS
pygs -t recipient@domain1 -s sender@domain2 [ -e envelope@domain3 ] [ -h ] DESCRIPTION
IMPORTANT: this man page is to be continued. The Whole pyg gateway is in devel. state. try -h option for more detailed option. pygn2m reads from stdin a nntp article, sending it to recipient@domain1 a rfc822 compliant email setting Resent-Sender: sender@domain2 and envelope envelope@domain3 if exists, else sender@domain2. If pygn2m reads from stdin a sigle line starting with /, it is considered an absolute path to an article (ie in a spool), so pygn2m will open and read it. EXAMPLES
There is some documetation in /urs/share/doc/pyg I created mailgate user (moderator of local.moderated ng). Every article posted in local.moderated is sent to mailgate, in its .procmailrc I've put: :0 bhc * ^To: *local-moderated | $HOME/pygs -t kalfa@localhost -e mailgate@students.cs.unibo.it -s 'cosimo@students.cs.unibo.it' where kalfa@localhost is the recipient (usually a mailing list) Here is an header extract from kalfa@localhost mbox: From mailgate@students.cs.unibo.it From: whosentnntparticle@domain4 To: kalfa@localhost Resent-Sender: cosimo@students.cs.unibo.it note that sender and envelope are different. rfc822 says that Sender: have to be a human user (not a program or similia). envelope can mailgate user.
