G'day Paul,



On 17-02-95 00:07, Paul Edwards said to David Begley



 PE> Aha, so that explains why you sent me two files without telling

 PE> me why you sent them.  On Saturday 11/2 you sent two netmail

 PE> messages, both with the file attach bit set, one to Bob and one

 PE> to Jeff.  However, you didn't send the files until the 14/2!!!!

 PE> No wonder my system and me didn't know what to do about that.

 PE> I don't even know how you managed to get your system to do such

 PE> a thing in the first place.  Anyway, there was even a message

 PE> in my Binkley logs where it TRIED to send that file to Bob,

 PE> but it couldn't find it (because you hadn't sent it!).  I will

 PE> now go and delete those two files, and could you try again, this

 PE> time getting yourself in synch with yourself!!!  BFN.  Paul.



It seems that Squish 1.11 sends the message with the file attach bit set to
the bossnode. If there happens to be a point list in the nodelist though,
it tries to send the file to the actual point.
