                         Natural laws have no pity.
                                              - R.A.H

It has come to my attention that there  have  been a large number of requests
for digests  sent  to other networks  from BITNET/EARN/NETNORTH.  This is not
a bad  situation, except  that many  of these requests contain a message like
HELP  instead of  a  polite  request to get on a mailing list.  It seems that
some people are under the  impression  that they are  dealing  with automated
file servers.  That is not the case.  When you send  a message to an internet
address like SF-LOVERS-REQUEST@RED.RUTGERS.ARPA you  are dealing  with a REAL
PERSON, not a server.  Please  address  them as such.  To avoid confusion the
file ARPANET SIGLIST  (formerly  ARPANET SIGLIST1  and  ARPANETSIGLIST2) will
soon  be  available  on all  NETSERV  file servers.  This  new file  has been
updated  to include correct  internet addresses.  In addition,  all confusing
references to  digest archives  unavailable  to BITNET  have been eliminated.
Thanks to Jeff Kell for the news that prompted these changes.

A new mail based info server:  CCUC @ UMCVMB

 CCUC stores the program library of Info-IBMPC digest.  It  comes up  once a
 day at 6am local time  to process  requests.  Any  requested  files will be
 sent  to you at that time.  To  request a  program or set of programs, send
 CCUC a file named PC-LIB REQ containing the filespec of each file you want,
 one  per  line.  No  wildcards are  allowed.  Both  IBM-CMS and IBM-PC type
 filespecs  are  allowed  (i.e both 'COM_PKG1.ASM'  and  'COM_PKG1 ASM'  are
 valid). Each line is  assumed  to contain  a filespec, so please don't send
 mail or note type files!  An up to date,  commented list  of the Info-IBMPC
 library files is contained in the file  PROGRAM-LIS.  A CMS style file list
 which  includes  other  available  files  and  time/date stamps, is in CCUC
 FILELIST.  Questions, complaints and suggestions regarding CCUC can be sent
 TO CCUC (use a filename other than PC-LIB REQ),  which will forward them to
 the CCUC operator.  Thanks to Randy Davis for the news and information.

                             Virtually;
                                    Chris
