So since these messages are ancient (Sept 1996), they won't showup
in the MHonArc listings. No problem.

are updated weekly (a batch job on Wednesday?). Jeff, if you can
confirm my initial (the 1996 ones) submissions went *in* OK yesterday 
(unless there's a way I can *see* these myself), I'll go ahead and 
submit the full archives in time for the next batch job.

As others have stated, this is a super service - thanks Jeff!
