From: Gerhard Beutler and Tim Springer Subject: [IGSMAIL-001] Introducing the IGS Electronic Mailbox Date: Thu, 21 May 1992 07:03:57 PDT *********************************************************************** IGS Electronic Mail 21-MAY-1992 17:03:57 Message Number 1 *********************************************************************** Introducing the IGS Electronic Mailbox ______________________________________ Purpose : The IGS electronic mailbox can be used by all members of the IGS campaign oversight committee and the participants of the 1992 IGS campaign. In view of the fact that the 1992 IGS campaign is starting in 31 days (!) it seemed absolutely necessary to establish a quick and efficient communication link between the participants of the 1992 events. It could also be used to distribute e.g. short weekly reports by data or processing centers. Place : The IGS mailbox is installed at the Astronomical Institute of the University of Bern, Switzerland (AIUB). The Address of the IGS mailbox : igsmail@aiub.unibe.ch Principles of operation : Every message sent to the IGS mailbox is meant to be mailed (after re-formating and numbering it) without further editing to the IGS mail distribution list (present list see below). Only signed messages will be distributed however. We could not find a way to perform this re-distribution in a fully automatic way. Tim Springer of AIUB will be the IGS postmaster for 1992. He will check the mail box and re-distribute the mail on a daily basis (except week-ends). If you have suggestions, questions, etc concerning the IGS e-mail service (e.g. new addresses to be added to the IGS distribution list, removal of old adresses) please send them by e-mail to the following address: springer@aiub.unibe.ch How to use the IGS mailbox : If you have a message, which you would like to send to all addresses in the IGS distribution list, please send it to the mail box: igsmail@aiub.unibe.ch It will then be numbered, a header will be added, then it will be mailed to all members of the distribution list. * Could we ask everybody receiving this message, but especially * Ruth Neilan and Peter Morgan, to carefully check the initial * distribution list, and to let us know any changes as soon as possible. Kind regards Gerhard Beutler Tim Springer PS: Those who received this message by fax could not be reached through E-Mail. We ask them to send us their e-mail address to be included into the e-mail distribution list. Appendix: --------- The Current IGS E-Mail Distribution List: Boudewijn Ambrosius D.
