A mailing list is different from a newsgroup because you do not receive anything unless you specifically request it. To be added to a mailing list, please mail a note to the contact for that list, listed below. The list does not include any of the many hundreds of lists that are available through various Bitnet ListServ sites. Some of the lists mentioned may be available as limited-distribution newsgroups. Contact the administrator for exact details. Please note the following caveats: publication of a list here does not guarantee that you will be allowed to join as a member. That is up to the moderator and readers, and they have the right to restrict access to their list as they see fit. Mailing lists use MUCH less system overhead on a world-wide basis but do tend to increase loading on the moderators' machines so the number of people that can be added to a list may be limited by machine resources as well. In your request to join a list, please include a signature or some other copy of your mailing address. DO NOT RELY on your "From:" mail header arriving unmangled or even vaguely representing what you think your prefered address is. Steven Bjork at the Network Information Systems Center maintains a list of mailing lists that exist primarily on the Internet. That list overlaps this one in a few places, but the lists are largely distinct. A copy of that list may be obtained by anonymous ftp from the site ftp.nisc.sri.com (192.33.33.22) in the file "netinfo/interest-groups". To add or delete an entry to that list, mail to interest-groups-request@nisc.sri.com. If you have a list that you want added to this posting or are interested in starting a list but don't know how, drop me a note at spaf@purdue.edu Groups listed in this posting 12step 30something 386users 3d ABC act-up adoption aeronautics agenda-users aids AIDS-stat algeria-net alife Alspa alternates anneal apc-open argentina artist-users att-pc+ autox backstreets bagpipe bahai-faith balloon ballroom bbones bears BETA Between-the-lines big-DB biosym blackbird BMW brasil brass bread british-cars bx-talk C-IBM-370 ca-firearms cabot camelot Cards Catholic Catholic-action cavers cdforum chalkhills chem-eng chem-talk chessnews christian cisco clu CoCo comix commune compress Croatian-News Cro-News/SCYU-Digest cryonics Cthulu ctree CUSSNET cyberpunkRPG CZ dark-shadows datsun-roadsters dead-runners decstation-managers derby DGRD dirt-users disney-afternoon Donosy DragonQuest drwho-spoilers DSA-LGB Dual-personalities DVI-List eastender echoes ECTL ecuador edge elements empire-list emtex-user Episcopal esperanto ethology euro-moto exotic-cars Extropians f-body f-mac femail feminism-digest ferrets Fiction-Writers filmmakers firearms flamingo flashlife Flat-Fields folk-dancing FoxPro framers fsuucp funky-music glove-list godlygraphics gnu-manual GRASS gug-sysadmins Gunk'l'dunk GURPS handicap hang-gliding Harleys health-ed hey-joe homebrew home-ed honda horse hotrod huskers hypeami hyperbole IBDlist iclinfo IDOL il-info immune impulse info-aids info-altos info-ccc info-encore info-fortune info-futures info-gnu info-high-audio info-ingres info-prime info-solbourne info-stratus info-tahoe info-vm info-vw informix-list interest-groups Int'l Trade & Commerce InterText ipsc-managers irchat italian-cars iti151 jewish jump-in-the-river khoros killifish kites Kuharske Bukve lang-lucid lasnet lds liberal-judaism libernet LickVista Linda Linux-Activists Llajta Logo lojban lute MachTen macgyver mac-security magic manchester martial-arts Masonic Digest MasPar Matlab mazda-list MC68HC11 medphys Melissa Etheridge men miata military miniatures mr2-interest MST3K mtxinu-users MUD Music-Research musicals mustangs mystery NA-Net NativeNet Ncube netblazer-users Network-audio-bits neuron newlists NewsCom nordic-skiing nqthm-users ntp nucmed numeric-interest nwu-sports objc objectivism objectivism-philosophy ODA offroad Oglasna Deska oh-motss on-this-day on-u operlist oracle orienteering origami pagan Papa pc532 pcgeos-list pdp8-lovers People of the South Wind Peru pharm physics picasso-users pipes Pisma Bralcev POP porschephiles posix-ada posix-testing prion PRL Prog-Pubs progress pubnet qn Quanta quattro Queen race recipes recovery REM RokPress RoleMaster rune-quest rush S-news sappho sca scoann scogen scoodt scribe Secular Humanist Group security SFER-l SkillsBank smail3-users smail3-wizards smiths-fans sonify sports-cards SQL-sybase stagecraft stardent-users stormbringer stormcock sun-386i sun-managers sun-nets supercomputers svr4-admin sysops t3 tadream Talon-Eclipse-Laser tandy4k tartan-c tcad tcp-group tekumel Testing-Archive Testing-Research theatre thicva think-c thunderbird tinymush-programmers toaster-list TolkLang torg towers transputer traveller tx-firearms uk-motss ultralite-list Unisys UPS-alumni uruguay usml UUG-dist vampire vanguard venezuela vettes VMEbus volvo Vreme News Digest wais-discussion wais-talk walkers-in-darkness wargames warhammer weights whitewater wildnet windsurfing Word-Mac wxsat x-ada XGKS xopen-testing XVT yello Yes/ABWH Yiddish Z-cars zeppelin ZForum Specific Information on Groups 12step Contact: suhre@trwrb.dsd.trw.com (Maurice Suhre) Purpose: To discuss/share experiences about 12 step programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Overeaters Anonymous, Alanon, ACA, etc. Questions will also be answered.
