# mail to this machine goes in $MAILDIR/$MAILBOX; userid is ignored
# $MAILSERVICE is the machine to route *ALL* mail through...
# $NEWSDIR is where C-News expects to find incoming news batches
# (more on this as the C-News code is implemented and tested)
# old UUPC bugs:
# ~ (tilde) by itself was not interpreted as $PUBDIR
# $TEMPDIR couldn't end in ':' or '/'
# The following section is where most customization takes place:
MAILBOX="crash" # current user's mailbox (mail filename)
NAME="Frank J. Edwards" # current user's name (for mailer)
HOME="Amiga_C_News:Mail" # where user's private files go
NODENAME="ckctpa" # what is our local nodename (for mailer)
DOMAIN="ckctpa.UUCP" # domain of this machine (for mailer)
MAILSERVICE="boake2" # who do we send remote mail to (for mailer)
PUBDIR="ram:uucppublic" # public spool directory
CONFDIR="Amiga_C_News:Uucp" # where config data is kept (Systems, SEQF)
MAILDIR="Amiga_C_News:Mail" # where mail is kept
SPOOLDIR=":usr/spool/uucp" # where spooled files go
LOGDIR="Amiga_C_News:Uucp" # where log files are placed (unused)
TEMPDIR="ram:uucppublic" # where temp files are created
DEVICE="*" # what is the default device (unused)
PAGESIZE="24" # number of screen lines (unused)
TIMEZONE="+0500" # hours west of greenwich (for mailer)
NEWSDIR="News:" # C-News directory (used internally to UUPC)
SPEED="2400" # what is the default speed (unused)
# C-News also has a directory for "out.going" news articles...
# C-News will take care of unbatching, etc. There is an "rnews()"
# function built-in to UUPC which will do the header stripping
# and move the file into the $NEWSARTS directory. THAT MAY NOT
# BE THE SAME DIRECTORY AS THIS!! (In fact, this implementation
# ignores this variable.)
# NEWSARTS = News:in.coming .. after "#!" header stripped
# NEWSBIN = News:newsbin .. not used
# NEWSCTL = News:news .. active/history/log/sys/whoami
# Setup:
# I usually make the necessary directories and copy the required
# files into the RAM disk. While in RAM: I execute
# uupc -r1 -sboake2 -x3
# Most directories listed below are within the same volume as where
# I started from, i.e. RAM. The exceptions are NEWSDIR which will
# be a floppy called "News:" and PUBDIR which is always in RAM.
#--- I no longer use the following block, but if you want to...
# Then I pop-up another shell and run the "mover.sh" script which
# continually scans the $PUBDIR directory looking for completed
# transfers and moves them to "Dest:". NOTE THAT "Dest:" MUST
# ALREADY BE ASSIGNED AT THIS POINT, OR A VOLUME MUST BE MOUNTED
# WHICH IS CALLED "Dest:"!!! (Usually I mount a scratch diskette
# with that name and then copy files off of it to wherever they
# go later.)
#
# The reason that this is done is that observation shows that I
# get better modem performance by reading into RAM instead of putting
# the file directly onto the disk (since UUPC uses synchronous
# writes) and then using a second task to copy them out. (In the
# future, UUPC will be modified to automatically spawn another
# task which will asynchronously move the file to the destination
# location.)
#
# Currently (12/10/89), I let the files pile up in usr/spool/uucp
# until they get processed at the end of the call by UUXQT (internal
# to UUPC).
