In article <1990Mar14.034238.805@eagle.lerc.nasa.gov>, Ted Fabian of
NASA/Lewis tells us what he knows about the Interleaf mailing list.
Now I'll add what I know (for those of you who care):

The NIC list of lists that you cite may be out of date.

> mail.interleaf <leaf%TEKSCE.SCE.TEK.COM@RELAY.CS.NET>
> [description deleted]
>  Coordinator: Pete Lancashire <petel%TEKSCE.TEK.COM@RELAY.CS.NET>

Pete left Tektronix over a year ago, but one of his colleagues (Carolyn
???) was supposedly going to carry on the list.  As far as I can tell,
there have been no mail.interleaf mailings in more than a year.  Maybe
it's time for a new moderator to step forward.

On addressing users at Interleaf, Ted suggests...

>   leafusa!node!node!user@UUNET.UU.NET

Note that we have a registered domain in the uucp zone, and you can
find us in the uucp maps.  "user@ileaf.com" is equivalent to
"ileaf!user@eddie.mit.edu" (10 Canal Park), and "user@hq.ileaf.com" is
equivalent to "leafusa!user@uunet.uu.net" (25 First Street).  Note
that, at least in the hq.ileaf.com subdomain (of which I am one of the
administrators), you can mail to most users at Interleaf via a first
initial + last name alias (for example, I am reachable as
"sfreedman@hq.ileaf.com").  Finally, using explicit uucp paths inside
Interleaf is unnecessary, since the alias files on our gateways should
resolve the user anyway.

> via email...

Don't attribute to malice that which might be better assigned to
ignorance.  Not everyone is a net user, so the people you talk to may
not know anything about e-mail outside the company.

Apologies for the net.clutter, but I can't resist any chance to clarify
things...  (Besides, I was the first person to post to mail.interleaf --
back when I was a customer!)
