                           TRANSGEN LIST INFORMATION

   Transgen is a list specifically for and about people who are
   transsexual, transgendered and/or transvestites. However, the list is
   open to the public, so be forewarned that we can in no way whatsoever
   guarantee you any sort of privacy. Furthermore, it should be known
   that there are several local redistribution sites of the TRANSGEN
   list, the largest of which is on America Online. While it's impossible
   for people not subscribed to the list to post to it, some can read it
   without being active subscribers (though this is discouraged). How
   much you choose to participate is up to you and you are under no
   obligation to post or make yourself known to the membership at large
   but posting an introductory biography of yourself or an explanation as
   to why you joined the list would be more than welcome.

   TRANSGEN may be received in two formats. As a DIGEST (the default for
   new subscribers) in which the reader receives messages grouped
   together into a single mailing, or post by post, in which every
   messages comes through to the reader individually. To set TRANSGEN to
   post by post format the proper command is SET TRANSGEN MAIL. To set it
   back to digest format the command is SET TRANSGEN DIGEST. The proper
   address to which to send these commands is LISTSERV@BROWNVM.BROWN.EDU.
   If you have any complaints with specific members of the list then
   please direct those complaints to the individuals in question before
   bringing them up on the list or with the list owners. When private
   issues are brought into public forums tempers tend to rise at
   exponential rates.

   If you have conflicts which are not resolved through private
   discussion that concern the list at large, or have problems with
   technical issues regarding the list, then please direct your queries
   to TRANSGEN-REQUEST@BROWNVM.BROWN.EDU
