While it may anti-social to use bitnet/internet gateways other than wiscvm,
it certainly is rational. Each weekday we fall behind hundreds of messages
due to arpanet congestion. (We sit at one end of the most congested line
in the Arpanet.)  Most of the time these are cleared on the weekend,
but if something goes wrong at that time, large numbers of messages may
be lost (or returned to sender).  

This week i will send out an announcement that at some future date 
we will limit the number of copies of a single
message that wiscvm will relay. We will expect list
maintainers to contact someone on the other net to set up exploders.
We have offers from some to help and details will be forthcoming.
At present well over 50% of our traffic is due to mulitple copies
from lists on both sides. Hopefully, the above change will fix or at 
least ease the current problem.
