IIRC, 72-pin ECC. Same stuff as used in 9000-Ex5 / 3000-9x8.
Not sure if you can use generic, but I think I might have tried
memory from older PC Netservers and it worked.

Yes it are.

4 drives max and switching from 3.5/5.25 to 8" requires a jumper, running
mixed if memory serves is not easily doable.

I dont know, I have 533 hours uptime on this NT box and that was
because a power failure interrupted a 1200hour run. then again I don't
run Office{insert broken version} and I ten to drop kick any app that
even burps and replace it.

Can anyone give me any information about the unit above? It's made by
ICS Electronics Corporation and it's a model 2351. It looks like it's made
to receive serial data commands to auctuate relays and sense digital
inputs. One port on the back in marked "Local Term" and two other 50
connectors marked "Digital Inputs and Relay Outputs". It looks like it
might be fun to play with if I can get it working. ICS won't help. They
say that it's too old. (I'll remember that next time my company wants to
order something from them!)

Probably so, but that's not my problem because I don't use them. If
it's your problem, maybe you ought to try to do something about it,
like bothering the vendor or finding a different e-mail reader that
actually does the sort of filtering you need done.
And yes, I've got a strong opinion about this. Your computer and its
software are tools; if they're not doing what you need done, maybe you
need to figure out what you need done and go find tools that do those
things, or go harangue the makers of your tools 'til they come up with
new tools that do those things, or make new tools that do those
things.

We're not -- at least, I'm not. This mail client is running on a ten-year
old SGI.

Unisys "Micro A"
Anybody know about such a system?
I took in a stray cat system a few months ago, started
parting it out, saw something interesting, then put it all
back together again. Today I booted it up (fits on 15A,
hurrah!) and determined the following:
Base system:
Intel mobo w/8MB (** 80386, sorry **)
Adaptec SCSI
OS/2 on SCSI disk
internal SCSI tape (QIC)
external SCSI tape (DAT)
VGA card
Add-Ons:
Unisys "Micro A" CPU card (perhaps DC113)
daughter memory card
two multiplexed serial cards
Another Adaptec SCSI card,
apparently for the Uni half of the system.
Another Internal SCSI drive
two external drives
Surprized it actually does stuff.
The "Micro A" system is controlled by three OS/2 Apps:
Admin, ODT 1,
and SCS (System Control Subsystem) (nice name) (huh?).
ODT 1 is a cryptic CLI system,
SCS is a boot console for the HW
Anybody got any beans to spill on this?
is it just a big printer controller?
I noticed the Micro A is apparently microcontrolled.
What was it sold for?
John A.
I have one, but it hasn't seen the outside of the box it is in in
quite some time...

Completely bloody off topic, I'll admit, but a right pain in the arse too.

Here's how I told procmail to pick off mail sent to me through this
list:
* ^Sender:.*owner-classiccmp@classiccmp\.org
Maybe that will help you come up with a somewhat less intrusive filter
that works for you.
BTW, the [classiccmp] thing was tried, hated (I told my mail reader to
strip the tag from the displayed subjects so I wouldn't have to look
at it; other people squawked), and turned off.
