Please allow me to apologize -- I'm considering replacing the ds.pro-ns.net CDR node. "cryptofortress.com" is mine, and I had believed I only had it set up to forward cypherpunks postings to a testing list while I worked on the details. Obviously, this was not the case, and I have deactivated it while I look for the cause of the problem. I realize that mailing lists doing this sort of thing is irritating, and I'll try to make sure it doesn't happen again. -Bill On Sun, Dec 30, 2001 at 06:10:08PM -0800, Tim May wrote:

Whomever "cryptofortress.com" is, I strongly suggest they get with the program.

I didn't send my message to their address, except as the lne.com site sent it along. To send a bounce or "requires the approval of" message to me (and I suspect, to many others) is broken.

First few paragraphs included below.
