Hlo, About the idea of storm-n,-s,-w,-e how about having the listserv's not all connected. In other words, have them hubbed arround 4 machines and have those connected to uiucvmd. Also having it such that the mail sent to each individual machine only go out the hub. What this is; uiucvmd will send any mail it recieves to all 4 areas so any ppl writing will have that info redistributed to the entire country while if you send a message to the local, it will only be distributed in the local. The local stuff would be sent directly to the local machines ie: reports for california will be sent to the redistibution machine in california, not to uiucvmd. eks. I know the first few lines don't m~L~L~L~L~L~L~L~L~L. The machines will still be connected but the will only be connected by area. So all the machines in the south will be linked to each other but only one of those machines will be linked to the rest of the country. The machine connected to uiucvmd will be having a one way door. Mail can come in from uiucvmd but can not go out. ---------------------------------------------- Matthew Hirsch HIRSCH53@ SUNY New Paltz SNYNEWBA On a borroughs........... ...^^ linked to you through BITNET New Paltz: STATE: New York Country: United States CONTINENT: America Planet: Earth ----------------------------------------------
