gnu.chess is a newsgroup (and mailing list) for discussing the GNU Chess
program and related topics.

PLEASE DO NOT post messages to this group trying to start email chess
games.  Instead, read the periodic postings on the newsgroup
rec.games.chess.play-by-email about the IECC and the IECG, two
organizations that organize email chess games, and get in touch with
them (via EMAIL, not by posting to the newsgroup).  They will help
you find opponents.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not post REPLIES to messages from people who
are trying to start chess games in this group.  Such a reply is of
interest only to the person you are replying to, not to the thousands
of other people all over the world who read gnu.chess.  Reply by EMAIL
instead.

Also, if you have other general chess questions that are not related
to GNU Chess and its companion programs (XBoard, WinBoard, AmyBoard,
CMail), you are much more likely to find the information you want on
rec.games.chess.misc or rec.games.chess.computer.

Thank you!
