We here at tfsquad are running Waffle on a DOS machine, and have had no
problems whatsoever receiving mail from kksys/tcnet.. Waffle's rmail goes
by what system it happens to be connected to, in this case "tcnet," rather
than what the D.kksysdkfjd/X.kksyskjdf file happens to have in it's filename.
We don't get news here from mn.org, though, but I don't see as how there would
be a problem receiving that, either.
