*BSD Usenet News via Email
Minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au keeps an archive of the news on *BSD, taken from the
Usenet newsgroups comp.os.386bsd.* and comp.unix.bsd. This archive can be
accessed via email.
You can do two things:
- search through the news subject lines for a particular pattern.
- retrieve particular articles.
To do this, send email to minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au with one or more of the
following commands in the email body:
- help: get help about the service.
- grep {egrep pattern}: look for this pattern in the subject lines.
- read {article}: retrieve the specific article.
- quit: lines after this command will be ignored.
Minnie will return mail to you with your requested searches and articles.
This service places a substantial load on minnie, so please wait for a
bsdmail reply before sending in another request. Thanks!
