Hmm, deja vu. This got me thinking: when are cross-posts to the various PLUG mailing lists "justified", and when are they not? I know I cross-post often, especially when I send out my advertisments. I think this is justified because there are a number in the newbie list who aren't in the main list, and a number in the main list who aren't in the newbie list, and AFAIK they'll all "benefit" from getting a copy of my announcement (alternatively I should set up an announcement mailing list, huh?). OTOH "help me's" like this are ... not for both. I remember we set up the newbie list for newbie questions like this. The main list is for more "advanced" (jaded?) topics, AFAIR. Anyway, I just thought I'd take this issue up for everyone to shed light on. --> Jijo -- Federico Sevilla III :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Administrator :: The Leather Collection, Inc.
