BL> WTF is the date/time standard in UUCP?

BL> As I read rfc822 it should be in the form [Sun,] 25 May 97 but most
BL> of the messages use 1997, especially yours. It's as bad as Fido.

I vaguely recollect someone in NET_DEV who said that the date was going to
be COMPULSORILY 4-digit year by 2000.

BL> I can't see any way to find a To: line unless we just add one, or
BL> claim one for our own use. How about we use the Organisation: line? The 
BL> probem is existing software. How about we abandon newsgroups and send 
BL> everything by public mail, uncompressed but in batches?  

I've told you, X-Comment-To is what everyone who wants to do this, uses. BFN.  Paul.
