Dear Willis,
 if you want to subscribe to an area you must email
	 amiga-relay-request@udel.edu
but don't you dare do this! I've done exactly that and found the whole
of comp.sys.amiga on my personal account. Talk to your administrator
(if he or she has got enough disk space to waste) to introduce a 
special account for these areas if you don't want to bother flipping
through 1.2megs of mail to look for the ones personally addressed to
you (what I am doing just now).

Someone claimedd that the email that you should sent to the above
email address should be made up of two lines (subject and one body line)
like
	subscribe comp.sys.amiga
or
	subscribe comp.sys.amiga.games

depending on the area you want to subscribe to. Anyway, the email I sent
did not contain a single subscribe but I got the whole bunch nonetheless
and am now trying to find a way to get rid of these...and all I wanted was
PD software from the net :-)

Let us know what happened to you then, right?
	hoover
