Howdy, Jens -- you and your Type IV still freezing up there in Michigan? ;) There are plenty of people who read the Web version or who have multiple accounts, so it is ideal to have open posting. Out of the 60,000+ messages ever sent to the Type III list, only a few (like, can caount them on one or two hands) have been outright spam. Requiring subscription status means extra overhead for me handling "why can't I post?" inquiries. I will take such drastic measures if spamming continues, but I'll keep trying for a smoother solution in the meantime. -The Admin ;) ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
