The other day I found this in my mail box.  As I recall it was
in reply to people cross-posting items for the 8 & 16 bit machines
to the wrong lists.  If my memory is deficient in recalling what
the reply was to, please forgive the following rant.

NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!  MESSAGES SHOULD >>>ONLY<<< BE SENT TO 
INFO-ATARI-REQUEST TO ADD/DROP NAMES FROM THE DISTRIBUTION
LIST!  

These folks are NOT there to do your sorting for you!

Send to INFO-ATARI8 or INFO-ATARI16 as appropriate for the
msg you are posting, but do NOT send a message to INFO-ATARI-REQUEST
UNLESS it is to the MAINTAINERS of this distribution list,
rather than for general distribution.

If I where the maintainers of this list, I would refuse
to re-post any messages sent to the INFO-ATARI-REQUEST
address.
