news.software.b is a Usenet newsgroup where INN is discussed.
>From the FAQ, part1:
------------------------------
Subject: Where can I get the latest copy of this FAQ?
0. If you are reading this document, then you already have part 1 of it.
So look around where you found this if the other parts are also there.
1. This four-part FAQ is available via FTP at any FTP site that carries
INN itself.
2. This FAQ is also posted to news.software.nntp, news.software.b and
news.answers about every 10 days.
3. A htmlized version can be found under
<http://www.unibe.ch/~guggis/faqs/inn>;
4. You can also get this FAQ by sending email to md@pilhuhn.de
with "get file faq-inn-1" on the first line of the message. (the
Subject: of the message will be ignored.)
(Substitute faq-inn-2, faq-inn-3 or faq-inn-4 to get those parts).
! Please be a little bit patient. If you don't get an answer within
two minutes don't rerequest the files. It will take some minutes to
process your request. If you are to impatient, then you'll get two
copies.
For example:
echo get file faq-inn-1 | mail md@pilhuhn.de
echo get file faq-inn-2 | mail md@pilhuhn.de
echo get file faq-inn-3 | mail md@pilhuhn.de
echo get file faq-inn-4 | mail md@pilhuhn.de
or
% mail md@pilhuhn.de
Subject: ignored
get file faq-inn-1
get file faq-inn-2
get file faq-inn-3
get file faq-inn-4
^D
or if you csh and are a total nerd, you can:
echo 'get file faq-inn-'{1,2,3,4}@ \
| tr @ '\012' | mail md@pilhuhn.de
...or get a real hobby.
