Where is the author of >BroadCast? Is the *source* in the public domain? I too would be interested in obtaining the source of this. It comes from Germany from Joachim Lindenburg. However, I do not know his eMail address. I don't know if they are public, but here at Dartmouth it has become a good method of communicating (we have 80 or so Appletalk zones spread over all the dorms and admin buildings of campus), but there are always people who abuse it. We were thinking of having a few buttons on the received message dialog to the effect of "OK" "Turn off receiver" and "Ignore this sender". -Andy Andy J.
