MAIL ALIAS
==========
I am in the process of requesting a mail alias for this list. Lately, the
mail handler couldn't handle the length of email addresses in the bcc:
field of my mail program, and aborts in the middle of mailing and tries
again next time, which explain why some of you been receiving duplicate
messages, some only one, and some none. Sorry for the mailbox overflow.
As a temporary solution i'm using the forwarding method to mail this to you
and it should work w/o problem, but if you do receive multiple copies
please email tte...@bu.edu asap, so that we know what to avoid in the
future in mass mailing.

L-NITT will also provide the Japanese Team with a friendship gift... Any of
you guys have any ideas? Also, if you haven't already, please submit your
league application forms and dues to Nelson Chin.

When the Japanese Team were here last year, they put in a word to ask
Martin-Kilpatrick to help out with discounted T-Shirts, and BU took the
offer. BU paid and received half of the 100 t-shirt deal, with the BU
insignia on it, and promised to buy the other half by next semester. Since
we now have L-NITT, I am thinking of transferring the offer over to the
league, and make it the league t-shirt. Araki, maybe you can ask the
Japanese team if they can put in a word for us, for free upgrade of the
t-shirts to collared or even jackets if possible.

Also, Araki, can you ask for fax numbers/emails of all who have it in the
Japanese Team. I believe that soon Japan will be covered by the free email
to fax gateway. ftp crsa.bu.edu:/pub/lnitt/faq for more details.

send me e-mail as soon as possible. The date for the above mentioned four
