Disabilities Mail Lists FYI This item will be a listing of disabilities related subscriptions. Buffalo Freenet (freenet.buffalo.edu) has an extensive disabilities related menu, including connections to disabilities gophers, discussion groups, reference material and much more. (A word about mail lists: If you subscribe to a mail list from grex you should remember to unsubscribe any time you won't be able to download or delete the item from the incoming mailbox for more than 2 days. Grex is currently experiencing some problems with the size of the incoming mail area, which may be fixed in the future. Another consideration is the size of the list. Because of the limited link on grex, incoming mail serves as a comparatively sizable resource user. If you have another site to receive regular largish mailings (such as a large list) that does not have similar link restrictions, you should consider subscribing to long lists from there)

Could there be any way I could "forward" all mail to my e-mail address of Ray_Williams@GSVMS2.cc.GaSoU.Edu ? This is the location I access GREX so To access the above from this local would be bypassing GREX and I like to share!
I'm sure you can set things up any way you want. You can create a file named .forward that will direct any mail sent to you here to any address you put in the file, but I'm not sure this is what you want as a .forward leaves no copy behind. Do you use pine or newpine as a mailer here on grex? It gives you the option of forwarding any mail a piece at a time. Better yet, you can "write out" a letter to a file of your choice. Then you can use your editor to chop out parts you don't want to use, add comments, and then when (say) entering a reply in conference you can read that file into your reply. I'm not sure what you want to try or what you already know how to do, but the things I'm describing are very easy to learn. I'm mostly familiar with pine and Pico(as an editor) because these are easy to learn. If you send mail to: help@cyberspace.org or ask in the info conference you can get more specific how-to advice. My caution about mail lists shouldn't discourage anyone from subscribing to one from here at Grex. I felt I should put in the reminder because I was advertising lists in this item.
I've created an account on the Buffalo Freenet system. It has a quite a
good selection of disability related resources. I'll be posting some of
the addresses and lists from there here from time to time. Here is a
brief description of what they offer:
(You can telnet there from Grex if you are a member of Grex: type
!telnet freenet.buffalo.edu
at any OK: prompt or ask for assistance.)
