Hello!

Did I get your attention? Good. ^_^

I wasn't going to post this, 'cuz I posted something similar back on August 2.
I was unsubbed from the FFML this past weekend. I didn't receive any
notification of being bounced or anything similar. My e-mail count dropped
severly and I asuumed that Natsume/WW/Thom was upgrading the FFML hardware.

To see if I was correct, I did the following:

1.  I went to the following web page: http://illusion.snu.ac.kr/~wacko/ffml/.
2.  I clicked on 'List Archives'
3.  I clicked on 'archive-today'
4.  I saw that 'Siblings 9' was listed and I immediately started back up my
    Eudora Pro.
5.  I re-subscribed to the list. I sent the following message:

To: fanfic-request@fanfic.com
Subject: subscribe
Message: <empty> (You don't need anything in the message area)

6.  After receiving the FAQ confirmation, I waited for the next message to be
    sent from the FFML.
7.  The last message I received from the FFML was archive number 42336.
8.  The next message I received was archive number 42485.
9.  I then sent a message similar to the following:

To: fanfic-request@fanfic.com
Subject: archive (DO _NOT_ MIS-SPELL THIS!)
Message: 
get latest/42337
get latest/42485
quit

10.  Between the above two 'get's, I listed a get for each archive number
     from 42237 to 42485. Yes that means I had over one hundred 'get' lines
     in the message.
11.  The FFML archive sent ALL of the messages that I requested. The smallest
     in size first, the largest being last.
12.  I then browsed through the posts with the knowledge that the DBTFH
     wannabe in a mecha suit didn't get mad at me.

THAT my friends is what I did this past weekend for half an hour.

Ja ne!!!!!
