- Dave and myself have looked at flames several times.
-
- If it is to work on our machines, a significant development effort is
- required, that neither Dave nor myself have time to undertake. I have
- been in contact with CMU several times, and they have no better idea
- than we have as to what is wrong.
-
- Aide-de-Camp has a much more sophisticated mailing filter which has been
- developed here. I am told that their only interest would be to look at
- FLAMES as an example of how someone else approached a similar problem.
-
- I hopw this helps,
