Hi all CoCo enthusiasts,

This is an occasional posting to bit.listserv.coco, comp.sys.tandy, and
comp.sys.m6809

Bit.listserv.coco and the pucc.princeton.edu list had become
spam-filled, so an alternative list and newsgroup were made available in
October 2003. As the princeton.edu mailing list is closed, there is no
newsgroup-to-list gateway; bit.listserv.coco still sees a few postings
monthly (16 on-topic posts since my last posting May 2).

I'm not about to argue philosophy. I do applaud the loyalty of those who
stay in bit.listserv.coco, because it will keep the group in place
should the spam issue disappear permanently sometime in the future.
However, the alternative system is in fact a highly active community
with over 1,000 postings per month on two lists and a gated newsgroup --
I hope those here will participate in the other groups as well.
Community is a wonderful thing.

The Yahoo list (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ColorComputer/) now has
240+ members.
The MaltedMedia list (http://five.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/coco/)
now has 180+ members.

To subscribe to the Yahoo list, visit the page at
   http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ColorComputer/
Posts from Yahoo are forwarded to the maltedmedia list.

To subscribe to the MaltedMedia list, send an email to
   coco-request@maltedmedia.com 
with 'subscribe' in the subject line. You will receive a password and
further information. You can also use this link:
   http://five.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/coco/
If you have not posted to the previous CoCo list in the past four years
under your requested subscription email address, you will first hear
from the MaltedMedia list owner. Since all new subscriptions wait for
moderation, you won't hear from the moderator during certain sleeping
hours. (I will also be away from June 24 - July 3.)

The mail-to-news gateway from maltedmedia is working through this free
news server:
   news.gmane.org
The newsgroup is:
   gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco
You can also use this link on some news clients:
   news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco
Web access is here:
   http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco

Postings to the gmane newsgroup are automatically spam-checked. Email
addresses on the group are also encrypted, so private email may only be
sent by subscribers and email addresses will not be harvested.

Addresses must be valid & verified to post in either the newsgroup or
the lists (please avoid blocked names such as anon, anonymous, nym, and
nobody). You will receive a monthly reminder from maltedmedia mailman
software with unsubscribe information.

Note for Eudora users: Please turn off the X-Sender header if you're
worried about your address being harvested. Here is a utility that works
with Eudora versions 3 to 6:

Because of a spike in attempted spam postings, non-member postings to
the MaltedMedia list are automatically rejected without a bounce notice.

Everyone with an interest in the CoCo is welcome.

Dennis
