WELCOME TO REC.ARTS.COMICS (parts 5-6 of 6)
written by lots of different people
edited by Paul A. Estin

[last update: 8/26/92]

5. e-mail/ftp addresses to ask for various types of comics-related files
6. e-mail addresses of comics-related mailing lists.


5.	e-mail/ftp addresses

	Various files are available from people via e-mail.  Simply
e-mail the appropriate list-holder, providing them with appropriate
supplications, plus a valid e-mail return address.  Some files are
available by ftp (file transfer protocol) server.  If you don't know
how to use ftp, ask your local system manager.  (Unless someone has on
hand an easy how-to?  -- a hint from the humble editor of the welcome
posting.)

	If you have any comics-related files you'd be willing to
e-mail to supplicants, please e-mail *me* so I can add you to the
list.  (Feel free to e-mail me for any other appropriate changes,
too.)

	A date in brackets, like [2/92], indicates the most recent
month that an address and file(s) were confirmed/updated as still
being valid.  If a [?] is shown, I have not had a recent
confirmation... if anyone can either confirm or deny a [?]. please
email me.  Also, if anyone tries emailing one of these addresses and
gets no response, please email me and I'll try to check it out.

Sandman annotations (by Greg Morrow, morrow@fnal.fnal.gov)
Suicide Squid discussions
	David Wald (theory.lcs.mit.edu) has made these available by
both ftp and email.  For Sandman, the filenames are "Index", for the
index of files, and "sandman.01" and up for the annotations.
BY FTP: ftp to theory.lcs.mit.edu or 18.52.0.92, and look in the
        directory pub/wald/sandman.
BY EMAIL: send mail containing the line "send wald sandman/filename" to
          archive-server@theory.lcs.mit.edu.  Thus, to fetch the index
          of currently available annotations, send email with the line
          "send wald sandman/Index".  If you can't get this to work,
          try sending email to the archive server containing only the
          word "help".
The Suicide Squid archive is available similarly, by ftp as
pub/wald/suicide-squid, or by emailing the line "send wald suicide-squid"
to archive-server@theory.lcs.mit.edu.

6.	Comics-related mailing lists

	Besides the newsgroups in the r.a.c hierarchy, you can also
subscribe to various mailing lists on specific topics (sort of like a
mini-newsgroup) and have messages sent to your email address.
	You can subscribe to any of the following mailing lists by
emailing a request to the appropriate email address.  Please note that
the appropriate address for subscribing and unsubscribing is often
different from the address of the list itself, that is, the address to
which one does the equivalent of "posting" articles.

	to subscribe: send a request to:
	comix-request@world.std.com
