Subj: unwanted chain letter
Date: Mon, 18 Aug 1997 23:44:28 -0400

I happened to log on late Monday evening, and while online, the stupid (and
very long) chain letter from mac720 showed up. I replied to him/her
directly informing him/her that it wastes time and resources for hundreds
of people on this mailing list.

I send this message now because there seem to be many people that are
fairly new to mailing lists on Klarinet (a good thing, IMHO), and I wanted
to hopefully slow a tide of Klarinet postings about the chain letter.

If you are bothered by the letter, please reply DIRECTLY to the offender.
When you hit "reply" in whatever mailer you use, the KLARINET mailing
address will show up in the "To:" field. Make sure you paste the idiot's
name in the field.

Thanks, and we now return you to your regularly scheduled Klarinet postings.
