So, on Jan 31st, 2001, I'll be turning off incoming list messages. 

It'll

churn away for a few days after that, sending out anything that makes

it

in before that deadline.

         Not to insult White Wolf, who's gone above and beyond the

call many times to keep this list going, but we really, REALLY

need an emergency backup list, folks.



         Wolf, have you considered a really quick setup of a temp

list over at eGroups? Granted, they limit posting size, and there

ARE those annoying ads they put at the top of every post, but for

something meant for temporary use, it can get us through this crisis

until you can find some new bandwidth.



         Here's hoping..

Yes, I think that is an excellent idea Ed. Except for a things.... The

posting size. People post things around 40-100kbs every single day. Also

aside from the size of the post, alot of people post to so the it adds up

from the size and the amount of posts. I very much doubt that an eGroup

temp. list would be much of a use to us/Wolf. Unless you had several of

them and then cut down so each post was at most 20kbs. I hope for the best

of the outcome of this unlikely turn of events.
