Subject: CRYONICS Admin: Moving CryoNet

If all goes well, this will be the last "mailblast" of the main CryoNet
mailing list from the old whscad1.att.com site.  Thanks much to the
people who have helped with the move to cryonet.org.

Here is what to expect:

  - At about 1 AM (Pacific time) on Mon. Jan. 16 you should start to
    receive messages from Majordomo giving instructions on how to post,
    retrieve archive files, etc. at cryonet.org.  (If you are one of
    the few people already subscribed at cryonet.org, then you will
    not receive this message.)

  - At about 2 AM (Pacific time) on Mon. Jan. 16 the first "mailblast"
    of the entire mailing list should start from cryonet.org.
    (Of course, if nobody has anything to say between the 6 PM Sunday
    mailing and 2 AM Monday, then no digest will go out at that time.)

>From then onward, the "mailblasts" will start at 2 AM (Pacific time)
each morning.  Please note that the "mailblasts" will come from the
address "" whereas the address to post your
messages to will be "".  Thus, a simple "reply"
command in most mailers will send your message to the "owner-cryonet"
address rather than the correct ("") address for
posting.  (FYI: Messages accidentally sent to ""
end up in my mailbox at cryonet.org.)  If this causes you a problem,
let me know and I'll see what we can work out.  (Maybe I should
automatically forward to "cryonet" any messages sent to "owner-cryonet"
that have "CRYONICS" in the Subject line?)

Only the main cryonics mailing list will be moved on Mon. Jan. 16.
Any messages to the "CRYONICS.POLITICS" list still will need to go
to the old address "" or "".
Hopefully, a replacement for the politics list will be created at
cryonet.org within the next few weeks.

FYI: The idea I posted for a possible third mailing list that would send
each message out in "real time" unfortunately won't be realized anytime
soon.  Sameer Parekh said that his machine's Internet connection wouldn't
be able to handle that much traffic yet.

The archives at cryonet.org contain the latest 100 or 200 mailing list
messages plus many of the 00* archive files.  (If you send an archive
retrieval request to cryonet.org and it doesn't find any of the files
you requested, it will suggest that you try the old site.)  The CryoNet
Web pages (http://www.c2.org/~kqb/cryonet.html) provide another way to
access the archives (during West Coast off-peak times), and they get
updated automatically once each day.

Please let me know if you have any trouble receiving CryoNet, posting
to CryoNet, or retrieving archive files at cryonet.org.
