Please tell your friends that sending 'test messages' to 12,000 or so people is a great way of receiving LOTS of irate replies. If you need to send a test ===> DO NOT SEND IT TO A LIST!!! <=== Instead, send it to: listname-request@node.domain (in this case: info-apple-request@brl.mil) Most list owners are 'good guys' (Brint Cooper who IS info-apple-reqeust is very helpful and WILL reply to test messages). If all you want to know is whether something you post to USENET gets out, why not send a short, useful message - such as: where on EARTH is pro-palace (Buckingham, Czar's, Versailles, wishful thinking ;-)? Ask a question; if you receive an answer, you'll know your "test :-)" worked.
