P.S. When I sent my first message, I wasn't aware that I posted it

I thought I simply reported a bug.
You sent the message to the right address. MHonArc fails to properly
associated "bsdos" to a Unix operating environment. This is a bug in
MHonArc and any bugs should be sent to the list. Having bug reports
sent to the list alerts other users of potential problems they may
encounter.
I don't think Gunnar was objecting to the fact that bug reports for MHonArc
get circulated in this way. It sounds as though he would like to know
before he sends his message that he is addressing a list of subscribers and
a publicly accessible archive. Nothing in the edress identifies it as a
listserv.
