Yes Fred,you're right. It exists a gateway that let's DEC people to read/ 
write to usenet using a GATEWAY (DECWRL). It just packs a bunch of messages
together and forward it to DEC's subscribers as a single message. 
This doesn't mean you have to go throu every single line of it ! With a few
single keystokes the cluster message may be reconfigured as many single 
messages on Vax-Mail format !

So, PLEEEeeaaaase, continue to post you messages has you've done till now:
even on EASYNET (DEC internal network) we can afford with it !

Thanx for your efforts.
