[net.sources.mac] HELP!

jel@iclbra.UUCP (John Lockwood) (07/31/85)

Help!
     I keep seeing messages about all this wonderful software being posted to
     net.sources.mac but when I look there is nothing! Is this because they
     are failing to cross the Atlantic to the UK. 

     Whatever the reason can anybody post them direct to me or explain why I am
     not getting them and a possible solution for the future.


                     Yours in gratitude,

                          John

To prevent a flood of responses, I'm making an open reply.

Your site ( iclbra ) requested that certain newsgroups were not forwarded,
to reduce their storage requirements, and to keep down their PSS costs.  If
you feel that you are missing out please contact your site news administrator
first before crying to the net.  If you don't know who this is I'll let you
know.  I have this year's news archived, so in the event of something earth-
shattering being lost I expect we can get it back locally.

	Many thanks to the people who replied to my message requesting help
	in explaining why I was having problems in obtaining stuff from
	net.sources.mac.

	I have now found out why I was having problems. Without informing anyone	our site has unsubscribed to net.sources.mac. No wonder I couldn't get
	anything!! 

	No effort will be spared in reversing this terrible act!!!!
