- Just post like you would to any other group.

- To post an anonymous article to alt.personals:
-
- E-MAIL your article to acs-post@alembic.ACS.COM.
- Article must be 25 lines or less (not counting the header).
- Everything after the 25th line of the message body will be
- deleted. Anything after a line consisting of "-- " or containing
- "---" or "===" ANYWHERE is considered signature and is removed.
-
- PLEASE DO NOT POST TEST MESSAGES. Send a message to acs-ping
- (see below) and it will show you what an article you post
- would look like.
-
- To send e-mail to an anonymous poster or to anyone with an alias:
-
- Just send e-mail to the alias as you would normally send e-mail.
- The message must be 25 lines or less (not counting the header).
- Everything after the 25th line of the message body will be
- deleted. Anything after a line consisting of "-- " or containing

- To find out if you can get mail to and from alembic, or to find out
- what your alias would be if you did post a personal:
-
- Send e-mail to "acs-ping@alembic.ACS.COM".
- The message you get back will have a Subject: of
- "Message RCVD" and will tell you your alias and
- show what the article would have looked like if you
- had sent it to acs-post.
-
- To get help, make suggestions, complain, etc.:
-
- Send e-mail to "acs-admin@alembic.ACS.COM".
-
- If your user name contains any the strings "uucp", "news", "mailer","smtp",
- "deliver", "daemon", "root", or "postmaster", in either upper or
- lower case, or some combination, anything you send to acs-post, acs-ping,
- or an alias will be shoved in the bitbucket for recycling. Send
- from an account with some other username.
-
- I would strongly suggest reading the "Long Form" version of the
- Intro to the ACS before you try posting anonymously.
