Dan,
  Comp.sources.games is one of many USENET newsgroups.  As the INFO-VMS
mailing list is gatewayed to the USENET newsgroup "comp.os.vms", so are
some of the USENET newsgroups gatewayed into ARPA (Internet) mail lists.
  The sources newsgroups are moderated, which means they generally have
only sources with no discussion, etc.  Articles posted in the sources
newsgroups are generally archived at several sites, some of which
support ftp access.  To get on the mailing list, contact your local
system admin.  If he can't help you, try contacting Erik Fair
(fair@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU), as I beleive he maintains some of this
gateway stuff (I hope you don't get flooded with mail Erik).
  For a list of games archive sites or to submit games, send mail to
games@tekred.tek.com  (or games%tekred.tek.com@relay.cs.net).
