: Thank you Savant for the help...maybe i get it work. it is so much different from yours and Jonathans mailinglist. :))so now we have three mailinglists and at least one is out of order for the moment. Well i misses Jonathans list and i hope he will get it fixed soon.

No problem Patrik. You must remember that the alt.tv.ocean-girl newsgroup
is what they call a USENET newsgroup. So even though I created the
newsgroup on my ISP's server, every server that subscribes will have a
copy of the newsgroup too. So as long as ONE server is subscribed to it,
it will never die.

USENET can be a little confusing at first, so don't be bothered by it, I
had the same problems many years ago. Try the link below, it is for a site
that 'teaches' the basics of USENET and other internet principles. Take
a look at this free site and see if it helps you out.

By the way, there is also a German language mailing list, in case you
speak German. Although I am subscribed to it, I don't post very often
since my German writing is not very strong. You can find info on joining
the German mailing list here: http://members.aol.com/DennisXXXX/deutsch/ocean.htm
or send mail to the list-owner at: DENNIS@FUNLINE.GUN.DE

In regard to Jonathan's mailing list, I took action against that person
who was posting the virus programs to the list. I couldn't believe how
many programs that idiot posted, and then the list went down. Although I
do not own that list, I will still defend it, and I have had conversations
with the ISP that person was using. They take this matter very seriously,
and I already have received two replies from them telling me that they are
taking action against that user.

So hopefully that person won't be bothering the list again...
