>(Eastern Standard Time) due to IBM 3090 upgrade.

Due to this extended down-time of CUNY it is necessary for the
LISTSERV@PUCC to be taken offline for the weekend. There is a 15-1
ratio of file traffic from our listserv, for every 1 file it gets it
generates an average of 15. This action is being taken to protect our
own system. LISTSERV@PUCC will be placed back online when CUNY returns.
This means that most distribution lists that use DIST2 will be held.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
