Subject: New Address for James Joyce List

Re: The James Joyce list has a new address.

I received a message from the Postmaster who handles the James Joyce
list at Utah. The addresses are being changed and the service will
be better supported as a listserv. The changes will take place on
October 15, 1993. To subscribe, etc., use the "request" address.
To communicate use the first address. Send queries to the postmaster
whose address is given below. I quote and condense the message.

::::::

In order to provide a faster delivery service and prevent multiple
copies of messages sent to the j-joyce mailing list, the mailing
list has been moved to a better machine. The name of this machine
is called: lists.utah.edu

The address j-joyce@cc.utah.edu is now j-joyce@lists.utah.edu
The address j-joyce-request@cc.utah.edu is now j-joyce-request@lists.utah.edu

[deletion]

On a futher note: Once the new address has been in place for sometime
I will be placing this mailing list under the control of a list server
process.
