ANOTHER FUCKING
WANKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
a message in the news sends it to many tens
of thousands of systems throughout the world! There is no way to justify
adding to the news load of all those machines simply because you cannot
determine how to get your mail through. If your message is important, contact
someone who knows more about the mail system and who might be able to help you
get your message through. Your local system administrator, for instance, or
the admin of the next site "upstream," might be able to help. You can also
send mail to "postmaster" at one of the major Usenet sites. Almost all of
these people would rather see an occasional plea for help in their mailbox
than read another broadcast in the news system. If your message is *really*
important, pick up the phone and try to call the other person.
