Ok, in the same spirit, if anyone sets up an account like Malcolm did at yahoo or a similar place to support our vanagons, or actually any VW activities, and needs an email address that they can change or throw away, I will provide accounts on my server. These are not meant to be high volume accounts, just a place for the normal overhead mail, please. These will not be shell accounts. ;) I will reserve the right to terminate anyone that abuses the privilege. And I do not yet do server level spam filtering, although I may in the future. I would suggest that you make arrangements me before you set up the account at yahoo/wherever so it will be active when they send you confirmation or other info. And please, this is not an offer to give everyone on the list a free mail account, I don't have that lind of bandwidth. tom On 2 Nov 2003 at 12:55, Sudhir H.
