Q26: How can I join the BITNET fractal discussion?  
A26: There is a fractal discussion on BITNET that uses an automated mail  
server that sends mail to a distribution list. (On some systems, the contents  
of FRAC-L appear in the Usenet newsgroup bit.listserv.frac-l.) To join the  
mailing list, send a message to listserv@gitvm1.gatech.edu or  
listserv@GITVM1 with the following line of text:  
SUBSCRIBE FRAC-L John Doe  
(where John Doe is replaced by your name)  
To unsubscribe, send the message:  
UNSUBSCRIBE FRAC-L or SIGNOFF FRAC-L (GLOBAL)  
  
Messages posted to frac-l are archived along with several files. The index  
of the archive may be obtained by sending email to:  
listserv@GITVM1.BITNET or listserv@GITVM1.GATECH.EDU  
with the sole line of text in the body: INDEX FRAC-L  
  
Files identified in the index (filelist) may then be retrieved by sending  
another message to the listserv with the line of text: GET filename  
(where filename is replaced by the exact name of a file given in the index).  
  
If there is any difficulty contact the listowner: Ermel Stepp  
(stepp@marshall.edu.
