VMSnet exists because of Terry's efforts, not yours or mine. Terry is to the vmsnet hierarchy what David Lawrence is to the comp hierarchy and is responsible for the newgroups and the status of all groups in vmsnet. If he chooses to issue a change to vmsnet.admin that made it moderated, I would honor it. His posting was simply a reminder to tell people what the appropriate group is. -- Ed Wilts, BC Systems Corp., 4000 Seymour Place, Victoria, B.C., Canada, V8X 4S8 EWilts@Galaxy.Gov.BC.CA | Ed.Wilts@BCSystems.Gov.BC.CA | (604) 389-3430
