This is a moderated list! The moderator address is in hundreds of sites
around the network. You simply can't make spur of the moment changes to
your moderator address like this. It takes some planning -- and at least
a month -- to change your moderator address.

I'm sorry, but no. This is your third or fourth change in the last couple
of months. I cannot spend the time on this, and it is unfair to ask
thousands of news administrators around the net to be fooling around with
your group while you get your act together.

Instead I will do this. I will take down your gateway, and will make a
post to bit.listserv.freemasonry telling those interested in continuing
the discussions to join your list at its new location. In a couple of
days I will send out a rmgroup for the newsgroup. After your new mailing
list has been running for a few months and everything seems stable with
it, then I invite you to re-propose the gateway.

	I am still working on some problems with our listserv, so
please send your requests to "freemasonry-request@sacsa3.mp.usbr.gov",
otherwise the requests go to the entire group, which generates
a great deal of unwanted and unneeded traffic.  I will hopefully have
the list serving software up within (I really hope - I had forgotten
how much "fun" it was to manually run a list...) a few hours to a
day or so.  I will possibly have to rehome the list to another host,
but I hope that can be done as invisibly as possible.  Thanks,
