A channel should be added to the configuration file to service local Jnet traffic. This channel is named bit_local and the use of this channel name is mandatory. Add a channel block to your configuration file of the form:
bit_local 733 single nosmtp Jnet-DAEMONThe
single keyword tells PMDF that only a single address
is allowed in each message file (a limitation of NJE) and the
nosmtp keyword tells the BN_MASTER program that an SMTP
header should not be prepended to the message. (SMTP headers are needed
when BN_MASTER sends messages to BITNET mailers. These headers are not
necessary and should not be used on messages local to NJE.) The
733 tells PMDF to use RFC 733 (percent sign) addressing
conventions since NJE does not support RFC 822 addressing.
