[net.women] How to access the feminist and the men's mailing lists

gkloker@utai.UUCP (Geoff Loker) (08/26/85)

The following is taken from mod.newslists and is for the benefit of those who
are interested in how to access the feminist mailing list (and also the men's
mailing list):
>
>This is a list of mailing lists available on the network. A mailing list is
>different from a newsgroup because you do not receive anything unless you
>specifically request it. To be added to a mailing list, please mail a note
>to the contact for that list.
>
>Please note the following caveats: Publication of a list here does not
>guarantee that you will be allowed to join as a member.  That is up to
>the moderator and readers, and they have the right to restrict access
>to their list as they see fit. Mailing lists use MUCH less system
>overhead on a net-wide basis but do tend to increase loading on the
>moderators machine so the number of people that can be added to a list
>may be limited by machine resources as well.

>    Purpose: The feminist mailing list is intended to provide a forum
>    for discussion of issues of interest to women, in a friendly
>    atmosphere. The basic tenets of feminism and the day to day
>    experiences of women do not have to be explained or defended.

>             mail-men-request@rochester.ARPA
>
>    Purpose: This digested mailing list discusses "men's issues" just as
>             mail.feminists discusses those of women.  Both women and men may
>	     join.
