[HECnet] OT VAXStation question

[Johnny Billquist]

Guys, while I understand that people want to get information and discuss 
all kind of things, you really need to think about OT posts. Not 
everyone is interested, and it has absolutely no relevance for HECnet. 
So you should not really bring it up here. There are reasons why there 
are different mailinglists, forums, and whatnot. So that people can 
filter and limit posts they receive.

I know the intentions are good, but good intentions are not really 
enough of an excuse.
