Here is the "standard" message one currently receives in reply to
sending email to California's Senator Boxer. So, if you have anything
to tell her about supporting environmental legislation, here's one way
to do it....

     Thank you very much for contacting my office.
      
     I am very excited that we now have the ability to communicate via the 
     internet. This technology has the potential of making the democratic 
     process a much more personal experience and I want to do all I can to 
     approach that end. My home state of California boasts one of the 
     largest communities of internet users in the world and I am proud that 
     I now can be considered a member of the user community.
      
     This is an electronic acknowledgment that your message has been 
     received and read by either myself or a member of my staff.
      
     You may also be pleased to know that I am now posting information such 
     as press releases and general office information on the Senates' FTP 
     gopher server.
      
     To access these files from the internet using anonymous ftp: 
     ftp.senate.gov, login: anonymous, to view files: cd member/ca/boxer
      
     Using a gopher go to: gopher.senate.gov
      
     Currently, my office is working on a world wide web home page and hope 
     to have it completed by the first week of March.
      
     Thank you again for participating in this revolutionary form of 
     democracy. Your concerns matter and I am glad that this medium can 
     make them more accessible to me.
      
     Barbara Boxer
     U.S. Senator
