I found that the bboard address insertion worked OK until I turned off
all validation (we have odd-looking XNS addresses mixed in that just
can't be validated). Then I just get the name of the bboard on the To:
line when posting.
Incidentally, to turn off all posting, I put the following into
$ANDREWDIR/etc/AndrewSetup:
AMS_ValidateDestHosts: No
AMS_PasswdValidation: 0
AMS_LocalDatabaseValidation: 0
Is there a better way?
By the way, is there any way to post a message on the bboard other than
clicking on the symbol of the folder, thereby bringing up the `What do
you want to do with `foo'' menu, and selecting `Post a message on it'?
It would be nice to have a menu command for posting.
