Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
about the EXE-mailing-list.

Q: What is the EXE-mailing-list?
A: The EXE-mailing-list is a mailing-list for EXE/COM - packers, protectors,
   unpackers and detection-tools. All new stuff is send via this mailing-
   mailing-list, e. g. HackStop, CrackStop, MESS, TEU, GTR, ChkEXE etc.
   All things send via this list must be public releases.

Q: How can I join the list:
A: You can either use the form on my Homepage (http://www.xoom.com/hanno) or
   you can write me an eMail at hanno@gmx.de.
   If you want to leave the list or if your adress is changing, please inform
   me also. I don't like it when there are adresses that are no longer valid.

Q: What speech is used on the list?
A: We only use English. Although there are many german users on the list, it
   should be for everyone and English is the only worldwide known language.

Q: How can I send stuff to the list?
A: You must send your files to exe%hanno@mailings.gmx.net
   You should use a common sending format, like MIME, UUEncoded or BASE64.
   For the files you can use the common packing-formats ARJ, ZIP, LZH or RAR.
   Or you can use SFX-files.

Q: What should I write in the subject-line?
A: You should begin your subject-line with "EXE: ". After that you should
   write the name and version of the program you are sending. And maybe some
   short important comments.

Q: Should I only send things written by myself?
A: No, if you've got something new written by someone else, you can also send
   it.

Q: How can I avoid replys from adresses that aren't valid?
A: You can fix this problem by using an annonymous remailer, which will
   delete the From:-adress in a mail.
   To get a description of an annonymous remailer, send a mail to
   remailer@cypherpunks.ca with subject "remailer-help".

Q: May I also send debuggers and disassemblers?
A: No, I don't think that they belong on this list. But anyway, I think many
   people on this list are interested in this stuff, so you might send the
   location of such programs in a short message.

Q: Can I send requests for programs to the list?
A: Normally the answer is no. If you are sending a file to the list, you can
   write your request in the mail. But I don't like mails that are only send
   because of a request.

That's all. I had to make some rules.
If someone is not accepting these rules after some warnings, he might be
removed from the list. Sorry, but I have to keep this so strict.
