As a Mac user who enjoys hearing the cross-platform traffic, I would
like to propose a less radical solution.  Perhaps posters could
note in the subject line if their question is DOS or MAC specific.
Then, those who were only interested in one platform could delete
irrelevant messages in short order (assuming their mail reader
shows Subject lines -- but that's another problem).

As EndNotes migrates from DOS to Windows, I wonder if the MAC/DOS
divide will begin to seem smaller (at least on this list).
Although I am a devoted Mac aficionado, I don't like the idea of
being isolated from the IBM/Intel/DOS/Windows world.

Just my $.02.
