On 22 Jul 2002, it is alleged that Brant Langer Gurganus sauntered in to
netscape.public.mozilla.documentation and loudly proclaimed:

On a completely unrelated topic: Any particular reason why I got the
following when I tried to send a note to you?

Hey, man:
When you're responding to user questions on the n.p.m.* groups, would you
mind directing 'em to the secnews.netscape.net groups as well? A lot of my
postings will include this info; so will some of Garth Wallace's and J�nas
J�rgensen's.
The only problem is that with Moz itself, you can't just click on the link;
you have manually to set up an account for the server and set SSL before you
can subscribe to any of the groups.
Thanks.
