Hello ANDREA!

14 May 01 22:22, you wrote to me:

 AS> -> FROM Andrea Santos, 1:135/382, asantos@santronics.com

When I submit, I have ready made text files that contain the echo information 
needed to slap the elist robot to life, my automation along with a ROBOT 
posting utility here takes care of the rest,

Here is a sample:
=== Cut ===
TAG SUPER-BASTARD
TITL Super Bastards Echo
DESC **PLACE HOLDER TAG**
ORIG 1:18/500
DIST None
GROUP FIDO
REST /SYS /REA
MOD Ross Cassell, 1:18/500, rcassell@home.com
FROM Ross Cassell, 1:18/500, rcassell@home.com
PASS xxxxxxxx
-+-
=== Cut ===

The FROM verb duplicates the MOD verb, and the syntax is obvious.

My submissions are sent netmail and I receive the reply in email.

The FROM verb is an optional one, putting it in there doesnt hurt, it is used 
to override the "Last Changed" info the elist robot ordinarily would gather 
from the message the submit came in on. Since my primary AKA is 18/500 and I 
have another aka of 1/3, should I submit a manual change from my reader, what 
my reader will do is say the message is from 1/3 when I address the message to 
the echolist at 1/21, using the FROM verb overrides this behavior in the eyes 
of the elist robot.
