Tony Bogan's messages also show up as attachments. In order to reply to one of these in context, I have to copy and paste from the original message. Is there a setting on your email clients which can fix this? Mike Loewen mloewen(a)cpumagic.scol.pa.us Old Technology http://q7.neurotica.com/Oldtech/

Emailing issues
by Sentrytv 26 Aug '19

26 Aug '19

I think what bugs me more is the fact that it sends my email as an attachment instead of a response in the body of the email. Maybe this can be set up differently via Yahoo. I know, we went through this before, just saying. This also happens with others. Mike R.

Dick Hustvedt and Peter Lipman were quite influential in the VMS design. Thanks for that link, however. I didn't know Stan had a copy of that presentation.

To be clear, Apple Mail (in OS X and iOS) WILL pull your original sent message from the Sent folder and put it in the thread for you- so you have to be careful… -andy

OT: Anyone in Canada?
by Tony Bogan 26 Aug '19

26 Aug '19

Is there anyone on the list in Canada that could accept a package and then ship it to the States? I have a machine that would come from Hong Kong but due to size Hong Kong Post won’t ship it and SF Express won’t ship used computers to the US. Obviously shipping from Canada to me (New Jersey) would be paid to you in advance. Contact me off list eh? ;-) Tony Sent from my iPhone

Museum AT&T Unix machine
by Jeffrey Brace 24 Aug '19

24 Aug '19

If anyone has the expertise to look at and repair the museum AT&T unix machine, it would be much appreciated. The symptoms seem to be that it is endlessly looking for a boot sector and not finding it (based on the symptoms and looking it up on a website). There is a green screen with characters slowly going across endlessly. Please contact Evan or myself if you have the ability and time. -- ========================================= Jeff Brace Vice President Vintage Computer Federation
