     This list discussed 6 or 8 months ago, the technique of 
     composing "mailing lists" as pure ASCII text files, with
     each addressee on a separate line, terminated with a
     carriage return ... etc.
 
     Then, the entry in the    To    field or in the    CC
     field would be     @FILE     in which  FILE is the
     ASCII text file with all the people of your mailing list.
 
     For many months I have used this technique, several
     hundreds of times, with 80 or 90 different    "FILE"
     names as different lists of recipients.
 
     Great system .....
 
     For 2 weeks now, everytime I try to mail to one of those
     80 or 90   "FILE"s    Arachne says  "syntax error".
 
     Yet the 80 or 90   FILEs have not been changed or touched
     in any way from the   same  FILEs which have been used
     for many months ..... previously with no problem, no
     "syntax error".
 
     I have been using the Arachne 1.66  , on the same computer,
     with the same modem, on the same phone line, to the 
     same ISP
 
     What the heck is going on ..................
