(The list-owner alias that some majordomos, etc., generate, is fine to use as the list maintainer address). Do NOT put information on how to post to the list. When users subscribe, they should get this information in the "Welcome to the list" letter that the list's majordomo (listproc, listserv, etc.) When you are finished writing this list descriptor file, mail it to lol@qrd.org * If a list no longer exists, but is in the QRD List of Lists, email lol@qrd.org identifying the list and asking us to delete the QRD List of Lists file for that list. * If a file in the QRD List of Lists needs correction, copy the file to your machine, make the correction, and email the whole file to lol@qrd.org, asking that we replace the file in the List of Lists (please say which file, by the way), with the file you're emailing us. This is much more convenient than emailing us and /describing/ the individual changes to make in the existing file. -- lol@qrd.org, 1 Feb 1997
