   :> Would this group be interested in having two very active LISTSERV
   :> discussions posted to this spot?  I'm referring to these:

   :
   LISTSERV is a special IBM account on BITNET machines that waits
   for MAIL or NETDATA traffic.  A common mail item/command would
   be SUBSCRIBE which will add the person's mail address to a
   given LIST.  Presumably MBU-L and R0MILL01 are lists available
   from LISTSERV@TTUVM1.bitnet and LISTSERV@ULKYVX.bitnet.

One for the file of likely places for bitnet listservs to
fit in nicely with usenet news.  comp.edu.composition
has been rather inactive of late.
