Short: NewPostNewsSpool v3.3 news spooling program
Author: daltern@ic.ac.uk (Nick d'Alterio)
Uploader: daltern@ic.ac.uk (Nick d'Alterio)
Version: 3.3
Type: comm/news
An update/bugfix to sendnews and postnews from the postnewsspool
package by James Burton which I recommend that you also
get.
It is used to spool news articles while offline and then send
them off when you connect.
New to version 3.1
- does not need seq file anymore
- now uses ADOS functions - size reduced to ~11k
- ANY file put into spooldir will now be sent
- any nntp posting program can now be used
- failed archive entries now have separator lines
containing date and time of failure.
AmiTCP only
New to version 3.2
- New env variable to stop postnews sending article
if you are online.
- Command line option for same purpose
