Umm, yes. Your test message is going EVERYWHERE. local.test groups are usually meant to stay inside a certain area, but unless you only send them to local groups, your message will go to EVERY local.test IN THE WORLD!! Kinda scary, hunh? If your news program asks you for distribution, just type "local", and the message will stay in your area. Otherwise, people in Germany and Massachusetts will get it. - Ian ian@cs.brandeis.edu
