You can access IBM-MAIN three ways 1. Via the web interface
2. To your e-mail account 3. Via the news group that it is gated to. If you use a news client to post to that group, subscribers to IBM-MAIN will not see your post. Also, "listserv.ua.edu" is not a news server; use the server provided by your ISP, if any, or sign up with an outside news server. But I advise against this route for IBM-MAIN. So if you're set to NOMAIL, I recommend that you either change that or use the listserv web interface. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)
