443.0. "Patch List for 3.0?" by POBOX::CROWE (I led the pigeons to the flag..) Wed Apr 08 1992 20:30

    Is there available a patch list of what's been fixed in v3.0? 
    Specifically my customers are having problems with a `feature' that
    Atlanta says they are "aware of and have elevated to engineering."
    I know its a known problem, is it fixed in the next release?
    
    The problem is this:  if you reply/answer to an off-node message, your
    name gets added to the CC: list once for every time you reply.  They do
    some goofy mass messaging and replying and this is getting to be a very
    visible problem.  Customers want to know if this is fixed in 3.0?
    
    If nobody here knows, do you know where I can find out?

    The release notes contain a list with known problems.

    This problem is not fixed because its not possible to fix 
    with the current mail system. If you want the details,
    read note 2644 of the 2.4 note conference.

    Contact your CSC. They have access to a problem/solution
    database which contains info about the problem. 
    I think every employee should have access to the tool.
    I know this cost losts of money but it will save lots of money.
    
    By the way. When your customer used the following addressing method,
    you can use the script at the end of my reply to remove
    the user from the CC: list. 
    
    If they use:
    
    		ALL-IN-1 username @ mailboxname @ node

    .1,
    
    Many thanks, the news of no fix won't make them happy but the script
    you supplied may alleviate the problem.
    
    Thanks,
