It expects the pipeline to # send it a list of items in the newsbase (a file name and its size, one # article per line), instead of a (possibly compressed) batch of the articles # themselves. This can be done by using the C News nocomp script both as the # batch builder and the batch muncher in the batchparms file. This script # just mails each of the named articles individually to a mail2news gateway. # # =()<. ${NEWSCONFIG-@@}>()= . ${NEWSCONFIG-/var/lib/news/bin/config} while read article size do /usr/lib/sendmail mail2news@news.demon.co.uk < ${NEWSARTS}/$article done exit 0
