Update of /cvsroot/tmda/tmda/htdocs
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv22293/htdocs
Modified Files:
history.ht history.html
Log Message:
Update some historical artifacts. Many people mistakenly think that
all of TMDA was derived from the TMS perl script, when in fact TMS
only implemented the concepts of 'dated' and 'sender' addresses (no
challenge/response system, no local mail delivery, etc.).
