ANNOUNCING A NEW WAY TO FIND OUT WHAT'S NEW FOR OS/2:
I've created a new mailing list service that delivers a list of all the new 
OS/2 files to your email box every day or once a week.
There are two different forms of the email messages and two different time 
periods for updates.  I'm offering the email messages in both text and HTML 
formats.  If you're using an email program that can display HTML such as 
Netscape Navigator, the HTML format is both more visually appealing and more 
convenient then the ascii text counterpart.
Both types of mailings include the list of all the new files posted here plus 
the full URLs of the files, file size, and complete file description.  With 
Netscape, subscribers simply click on the URL in your mailer and the file is 
sent to you.  With other mailers that have URL support you can similarly 
download the file almost immediately.  With MR/2 ICE for instance, you click 
the URL then right-click and select "web browser".
I'm offering the file lists I generate here daily including the daily update 
and the new files posted over the last week.  Weekly updates will be mailed 
every Saturday.  Daily updates are mailed usually between 10:00 AM and 12:00 
noon.
To subscribe to any of the lists, send an email message to:
   lyris@bbs.os2bbs.com
The message subject will be ignored and can simply be left blank.
In the MESSAGE BODY, place the command:
   subscribe "list-name"
where "list-name" is one of the following:
   os2new-1day-html
   os2new-1day-text
   os2new-1week-html
   os2new-1week-text
Unsubscribing works exactly the same way but you say "unsubscribe" in place 
of "subscribe"
The service obviously has the greatest utility for BBS subscribers but it is 
valuable just the same to everyone.  Please feel free to use the email 
announcements to help you choose whether you want to call the BBS that day 
via telnet or via the dialup network.  All the files on the BBS are available 
to anyone.  There is no subscription requirement, and no upload/download 
ratios.
Feedback on the new service is welcome.  Please send email to 
pnorloff@os2bbs.com or leave a message on the BBS.
Thanks very much.
