I sent you a message showing 2 messages that are a confirmation of the same message but the numbers do not match to me. I never received an answer to that message so here are two more, just in case that message is lost somewhere. -------- Message #1 ----------------------------------------- Date: Sat, 14 Jun 1997 09:17:43 -0500 From: "L-Soft list server at University of Alabama (1.8c)" <[log in to unmask]> Subject: BAMAFAN: approval required (0A4CFE) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^ To: Bill Harrison <[log in to unmask]> This message was originally submitted by [log in to unmask] to the BAMAFAN list at UA1VM.UA.EDU. You can approve it using the "OK" mechanism, ignore it, or repost an edited copy. The message will expire automatically and you do not need to do anything if you just want to discard it. Please refer to the list owner's guide if you are not familiar with the "OK" mechanism; these instructions are being kept purposefully short for your convenience in processing large numbers of messages. ------------------ Original message (ID=0A4CFE) (22 lines) -------------------- Return-Path: <[log in to unmask]> Received: from UA1VM (NJE origin V2SMTP-O@UA1VM) by UA1VM.UA.EDU (LMail V1.2a/1.8a) with BSMTP id 9423; Sat, 14 Jun 1997 09:16:27 -0500 Received: from emout05.mail.aol.com (198.81.11.96) by UA1VM.UA.EDU (IBM VM SMTP V2R3) with TCP; Sat, 14 Jun 97 09:16:26 CDT Received: (from root@localhost) by emout05.mail.aol.com (8.7.6/8.7.3/AOL-2.0.0) id KAA24117 for [log in to unmask]; Sat, 14 Jun 1997 10:16:42 -0400 (EDT) Date: Sat, 14 Jun 1997 10:16:42 -0400 (EDT) From: [log in to unmask] Message-ID: <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: NATIONAL CHAMPS? Who cared in 57? ESPN had a special a few years ago that had the top ten all time greatest college teams and BAMA had one of the teams from the 60's on 65 I think, also the team of 92 was added. Needless to say the awbos had zero, nilch, nada. They just can't accept being 2nd fiddle to BAMA. PS ithink Nebraska 73 was #1 alltime ( according to ESPN), but we all know who is really #1. ------------------- Message #2 ------------------------- Date: Sat, 14 Jun 1997 09:28:58 -0500 From: "L-Soft list server at University of Alabama (1.8c)" <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Output of job "billh" from [log in to unmask] To: Bill Harrison <[log in to unmask]> > ok Confirming: > APPROVE BAMAFAN 27D5F3 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^ Message successfully approved. ----------------------- Thanks for your help. -- Bill Harrison [log in to unmask]
