... It would be nice if the mailing
code were written a little more cleverly, e.g. to try sequence
through entries on ZWEI:*CHAOS-MAIL-HOSTS* until it finds one
that is up.
I thought that's what it did.
That's what it does in the case of chaos mailing rather than COMSAT
request file mailing. COMSAT request files must go to the login host,
since ZMail cannot generate the headers. Perhaps now that OZ is here
and AI is still ailing, the default mail mode for MIT should be CHAOS as
well?
