So the VMS'ers don't find it bothersome to wade thru irrelevant mail? So we just start forwarding a bunch of Vax Unix related mail from wizards or Usenet to info-vax-- after all, "a machine's nothing without its OS" as some advocate of retaining the current list content said. Then we'll see who really cares about junk mail. -------
