To post a NON-anonymous article to alt.personals:

	Just post like you would to any other group.
	alt.personals is not moderated.

To post an anonymous article to alt.personals:

	E-MAIL your article to ap.post@hri.com (World).

	Article should be 30 lines or less (not counting the header).
	Anything after a line beginning with  "--" is considered
	signature and is removed.

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 should be 30 lines or less (not counting the header).
	Anything after a line beginning with "--" is considered 
	signature and removed.

To find out if you can get mail to and from hri.com, or to find out
what your alias would be if you did post a personal:

	Send e-mail to "ap.ping@hri.com".
	Doesn't matter what's in the body of the message, no one
	ever sees it.

To get help, make suggestions, complain, etc.:

	Send e-mail to "ap.admin@hri.com".

If your e-mail path contains any of the strings "MAILER", "mailer",
"DAEMON", "daemon", "uucp", "POSTMASTER", "postmaster", "DELIVER",
"news" or "root", anything you send to ap.post, ap.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.
