To receive the list of members, send "who amps" in the body.  Majordomo 
will send back the current mailing list.  For those who run the Mac OS, 
Claris Emailer will auto-convert up to 1000 addresses into one group in 
the Address Book.  The whole shebang takes minutes.

€  I posted.  The posts were not being remailed by the  AMPS computer.  
This is what happened the last time I got booted off this mailing list.
