I had a question from one of my users which I couldn't answer:
 
What's the difference between postings from a list which include other
people at your own node in the To: line (yes, I know, no more than 4 or
5, even if there are more than that subscribed from your node), and
postings which come addressed only To: you, regardless of how many other
people at your node are also subscribed?  We're a VAX/VMS/JNET node, so
we have no MAILER to re-distribute one common piece of mail; the
LISTSERV (nearest one, if it's MAIL VIA DISTRIBUTE) sends a separate
piece of mail per subscriber.
