  401.    subscribe, send mail to "LISTSERV@sitename" with a one-line mail
  402.    message: "SUBSCRIBE listname yourname". People connected directly to

  404.  
  405. 3. Many BitNet sites are also reachable through the Internet. The
  406.    Internet address can be obtained by sending the command "WHOIS
  407.    sitename" (for example: WHOIS AUVM) as the first line of an e-mail
  408.    message to bitnodes@american.edu. Send HELP for more information on
  409.    bitnodes. People at BitNet sites can send these commands as
  410.    interactive messages to BITNODES@AUVM.
  411.  
  412. 4. The lists whose names end in something other than ".BITNET" are

  436.         *** General Information on Listserv/Netnews gateways ***
  437.         ********************************************************
  438.  
  439. This document gives general  information on bi-directional (or optionally
  440. uni-directional) gateways between Listserv  and Netnews as implemented in
  441. Netnews  version 2.4  by Linda  Littleton  at Penn  State University.  It
  442. includes guidelines on how to establish a new Listserv/Netnews gateway.
  443.  
  444. *** What is Listserv?
  445.  
  446. Listserv, which stands  for List Server, is a mail  list server that runs
  447. on VM/CMS. It provides "mail-exploding"  capabilities so that people with
  448. a common  interest can communicate with  each other by sending  mail to a
  449. particular  address   (one  address   per  Listserv  list),   which  then
  450. redistributes  the mail  to each  person "subscribed"  to the  list. Each
  451. person subscribed to a particular list gets  a copy of each piece of mail
  452. in their mailbox.
  453.  
  454. *** What is Netnews?
  455.  
  456. Netnews is  a bulletin  board system  in which articles  on a  variety of
  457. topics are arranged in "newsgroups" and  stored in a shared location from
  458. which  individual users  can read  them.  These newsgroups  can be  local
  459. newsgroups, available only at a user's  site, or may be shared with other
  460. sites to form a world-wide bulletin board system called Usenet.
  461.  
  462. *** What does the gateway do?
  463.  
  464. The gateway  software (which  is a  built-in part  of the  VM/CMS Netnews
  465. server from Penn State) puts each piece of Listserv mail for a particular
  466. list  into  a  corresponding  Netnews   newsgroup  and  also  sends  each
  467. Netnews-originating posting to  the newsgroup back to  the Listserv list.
  468. On a per-group basis, the gateway  can be either bi-directional or can be
  469. uni-directional in either direction. Generally Listserv groups on Netnews
  470. are given  the name bit.listserv.<listname>. When  appropriate, the items
  471. in a  Listserv list might also  be cross-posted to a  "mainstream" Usenet
  472. group.
  473.  
  474. *** Why have a gateway?
  475.  
  476. The major  reason sites decide  to carry  gatewayed Listserv lists  is so
  477. their users can read these lists  via shared disks, rather than requiring
  478. each user to receive each item to their mailbox. In addition, the gateway
  479. gives greater  exposure and wider readership  to the list since  the list
  480. can be now be read by users at hundreds of Usenet sites.
  481.
