I wouldn't say that too fast if I were you... IIRC, JD once told me he got
notified by the old Listserv (the Hearn one) of who subscribed, and he had
a script send them the FAQ. It wasn't Listserv itself doing that, so I
have a feeling Listproc didn't do it automatically either.

These messages were posted a long time ago on a mailing list far, far away. The copyright to their contents probably lies with the original authors of the individual messages, but since they were published in an electronic forum that anyone could subscribe to, and the logs were available to subscribers and most likely non-subscribers as well, it's felt that re-publishing them here is a kind of public service.
