I wouldn't have noticed, except the address had the phrase `Engineering Department System' in it, which I have put in exactly one place... our USENET Compact Directory entry! (You know, the one maintained by Karen Summers-Horton out of the goodness of her heart, posted once a month, on the first of the month, in net.news.map). Can the people at SSC confirm or deny that they have used the USENET Compact Directory as a direct marketing mailing list? Can the people at Teltone give us a hint about these `SSC' people? a little irritated to see yet more junk Snail mail, Erik E.

For the folks who are not USENET system administrators, can you check to see that your admin is reading net.news.sa, please? If they're not, please suggest that they do so, since that group is intended to reach them all...
