Biology Lines: 18 I would be happy to gateway x-announce into a newsgroup, but I need your help to do so. Please add the address x-announce-usenet@genbank.bio.net to the distribution, and create an address incoming-x-announce@expo.lcs.mit.edu that does not contain the x-announce-usenet address, but does contain the other addresses. [This will prevent loops.] Generally this is done as follows in /usr/lib/aliases: mailing-list: :include:/usr/local/mlists/x-announce usenet-address: x-announce-usenet@genbank.bio.net xannounce: mailing-list, usenet-address incoming-xannounce: mailing-list Let me know if you're amenable to this, -- Eliot Lear [lear@turbo.bio.net]
