Should be easy to adapt for INN too. * Error recovery. In the event of an error occurring while articles are being posted, the message IDs of failed articles are maintained in the spool file. * No configuration required. * Logging to syslog of the number of succesfully posted, missing and duplicate articles at the end of a session plus, if required, the transfer speed of the article posting stage. * Executable is included. To recompile, copy of Slurp source is required. Postit was written in C under Linux, and should be quite portable.
