Thank you for your kind words.

It would be a big lengthy to post (about 5,000 entries), and I'm not sure if
an employee directory (which is sort of what it is) would be public or
confidential information.
I'd also like to point out that Michael B. Smith put in a lot of good work,
on his own time, to enhance A Mail in its early days. In particular, Michael
wrote the original screen mail and news groups code, and an implementation of
SMTP (which for various complicated reasons isn't being used). Michael deserves
a round of thanks for his efforts.
