[kwlug-disc] KWLUG and CASL (and Mailman)

[Andrew Sullivan Cant]

Looking through the descrption at this link:
> http://www.computerdealernews.com/slideshows/answers-to-your-casl-questions

slide 6 - the list of things that are excluded from the requirements:
"• Messages sent on an electronic messaging service (such as a social

messaging service"?
