I don't know if this is something you would like to do, but thought
I would bring it to your attention anyway.

Subject: For BITNET Readers Only
[I just added several new BITNET readers to Info-Apple. The following
request, therefore, is even more important. Please give it serious
consideration. Brint]
Folks,
Because of severe congestion at the WISCVM mail relay,
Info-Apple, which originates on the Arpa Internet, has been asked to
find a Bitnet host willing to forward Info-Apple mail to all subscribing
Bitnet sites. In this way, along with the one copy of each message that
is sent from BRL to WISCVM, only one address, that of the "exploder,"
would be passed.
This is expected to improve service to all of us.
If you can provide reliable forwarding service for Info-Apple
and are willing to maintain a list of Bitnet subscribers to Info-Apple,
please drop me a note.
At present, 51 of the 167 subscribers to Info-Apple are on
Bitnet. Rather soon, now, WISCVM is promising to curtail gateway
service to mailing lists destined for more than 10 subscribers on the
destination side.
Thanks for your help.
