Introduction

The sci.bio.phytopathology newsgroup was created in September 1995.
The group originally had a panel of moderators who oversaw all
postings. Over time these moderators burned out or moved on to other
things, and the last approved posts known to Google were in April
2000.

In April 2002 the group was revived by Brian Edmonds, who is running
the group and a companion, gated mailing list under full
robomoderation.

Since its creation a number of control messages have been sent which
at some sites appear to have erroneously changed the status of the
group to unmoderated. If this is the case at your site, you should
bring it to the attention of your news admin, as any postings you make
to a moderated group which is not properly recognized as such at your
site will be silently discarded at any site where the group is
correctly carried as moderated.
_________________________________________________________________

Charter

Sci.bio.phytopathology is a moderated discussion forum on all aspects
of phytopathology and plant health including pests. Following topics
(among others) should be covered by the group: diseases caused by
fungi, bacteria, viruses; pests caused by insects and other organisms;
epidemiology, modeling plant disease epidemics; host-parasite
interactions; pest management; biological control; integrated crop
protection and production; molecular biology, genetics and ecological
aspects of diseases and resistance;detection of pathogens; resistance
mechanisms; acquired resistance in plants; stress resistance and
tolerance; yield losses due to diseases and pests; use of transgenic
plants in phytopathology; model systems in phytopathology;
biotechnology in plant protection.

Miscellaneous Policies

The moderation software may (now or possibly in the future) enforce
the following policies:

* Postings must be in plain text. In particular no HTML or mixed
text and HTML posts will be allowed. Excessive quoting and large
sigs are also not allowed. Any post with more than 70%% quoted
material or a sig in excess of 512 bytes will be rejected.
* Postings must be formatted within 80 characters in width (limiting
your lines to 72 characters is recommended), and also must not
exhibit the long/short/long/short/etc misformatting that some
posting agents can produce when misconfigured.
* No binary postings of any sort will be accepted. Exceptions will
be made for cryptographic signatures and such. S/MIME signatures
are usually far too bulky and will probably not be accepted.
* Crossposting is not allowed except through manual intervention by
the moderator. Contact the moderator if you feel you need to
crosspost to sci.bio.phytopathology and any other group.
* Followups can be to no more than one group, or to poster.
* Mail address blacklisting and whitelisting may be implemented as
deemed necessary. In addition a number of anti-spam filters are in
place, and will be expanded as needed.

All posts (with a working return address) will either be returned with
a rejection notice, or posted to the newsgroup and mailing list. One
exception is that rejection notices for the same error are suppressed
for a few minutes after the first one is sent to reduce the danger of
the robomoderator being used as a mailbombing agent.

Posting with a non-replyable address is strongly discouraged. If you
feel you must post with such an address, please make sure you are not
using one in a valid mail domain; appending .invalid to the address is
the recommended way to ensure this.

Robomoderation

The robomoderation software (robomod) enforces various anti-spam and
text formatting requirements. Note that in order to receive rejection
notices or other information from robomod it must have a valid email
address for you. More information on the registration process,
including how to use munged addreses, can be found at
* http://www.robomod.net/register.html
* post to the newsgroup or mailing list with the following text in
the subject (without the quotes): "send file: register.txt"

Submissions from non-registered addresses will be held for human
moderation. The moderators may at their discretion register addresses
for auto-approval, or revert them to hand moderated status.
_________________________________________________________________

How To Submit a Post

At a correctly configured site you should simply be able to post to
sci.bio.phytopathology and everything will be managed for you behind
the scenes. If you find this does not work for you, you can submit
directly to the submission agent by mailing your posting to
sci-bio-phytopathology@robomod.net.

Please try the newsgroup first, and be sure to bring any problems to
the attention of your local news administrator so that they can be
dealt with.
_________________________________________________________________

The Mailing List

All postings to sci.bio.phytopathology are also distributed to the
mailing list sci-bio-phytopathology@robomod.net, which is available in
both regular and digest format. For subscription information, send
email to sci-bio-phytopathology-request@robomod.net or visit the list
webpage at
http://www.robomod.net/mailman/listinfo/sci-bio-phytopathology.

Likewise, all postings to the mailing list are also distributed to the
newsgroup, so subscribers can use whichever of the newsgroup, list, or
digest formats is most comfortable.

using one in a valid mail domain; appending .invalid to the address is
the recommended way to ensure this.

Robomoderation

The robomoderation software (robomod) enforces various anti-spam and
text formatting requirements. Note that in order to receive rejection
notices or other information from robomod it must have a valid email
address for you. More information on the registration process,
including how to use munged addreses, can be found at
* http://www.robomod.net/register.html
* post to the newsgroup or mailing list with the following text in
the subject (without the quotes): "send file: register.txt"

Submissions from non-registered addresses will be held for human
moderation. The moderators may at their discretion register addresses
for auto-approval, or revert them to hand moderated status.
_________________________________________________________________

How To Submit a Post

At a correctly configured site you should simply be able to post to
sci.bio.phytopathology and everything will be managed for you behind
the scenes. If you find this does not work for you, you can submit
directly to the submission agent by mailing your posting to
sci-bio-phytopathology@robomod.net.

Please try the newsgroup first, and be sure to bring any problems to
the attention of your local news administrator so that they can be
dealt with.

Introduction

The sci.bio.phytopathology newsgroup was created in September 1995.
The group originally had a panel of moderators who oversaw all
postings. Over time these moderators burned out or moved on to other
things, and the last approved posts known to Google were in April
2000.

In April 2002 the group was revived by Brian Edmonds, who is running
the group and a companion, gated mailing list under full
robomoderation.

Since its creation a number of control messages have been sent which
at some sites appear to have erroneously changed the status of the
group to unmoderated. If this is the case at your site, you should
bring it to the attention of your news admin, as any postings you make
to a moderated group which is not properly recognized as such at your
site will be silently discarded at any site where the group is
correctly carried as moderated.
_________________________________________________________________

Charter

Sci.bio.phytopathology is a moderated discussion forum on all aspects
of phytopathology and plant health including pests. Following topics
(among others) should be covered by the group: diseases caused by
fungi, bacteria, viruses; pests caused by insects and other organisms;
epidemiology, modeling plant disease epidemics; host-parasite
interactions; pest management; biological control; integrated crop
protection and production; molecular biology, genetics and ecological
aspects of diseases and resistance;detection of pathogens; resistance
mechanisms; acquired resistance in plants; stress resistance and
tolerance; yield losses due to diseases and pests; use of transgenic
plants in phytopathology; model systems in phytopathology;
biotechnology in plant protection.

Miscellaneous Policies

The moderation software may (now or possibly in the future) enforce
the following policies:

* Postings must be in plain text. In particular no HTML or mixed
text and HTML posts will be allowed. Excessive quoting and large
sigs are also not allowed. Any post with more than 70%% quoted
material or a sig in excess of 512 bytes will be rejected.
* Postings must be formatted within 80 characters in width (limiting
your lines to 72 characters is recommended), and also must not
exhibit the long/short/long/short/etc misformatting that some
posting agents can produce when misconfigured.
* No binary postings of any sort will be accepted. Exceptions will
be made for cryptographic signatures and such. S/MIME signatures
are usually far too bulky and will probably not be accepted.
* Crossposting is not allowed except through manual intervention by
the moderator. Contact the moderator if you feel you need to
crosspost to sci.bio.phytopathology and any other group.
* Followups can be to no more than one group, or to poster.
* Mail address blacklisting and whitelisting may be implemented as
deemed necessary. In addition a number of anti-spam filters are in
place, and will be expanded as needed.

All posts (with a working return address) will either be returned with
a rejection notice, or posted to the newsgroup and mailing list. One
exception is that rejection notices for the same error are suppressed
for a few minutes after the first one is sent to reduce the danger of
the robomoderator being used as a mailbombing agent.

Posting with a non-replyable address is strongly discouraged. If you
feel you must post with such an address, please make sure you are not
using one in a valid mail domain; appending .invalid to the address is
the recommended way to ensure this.

aspects of diseases and resistance;detection of pathogens; resistance
mechanisms; acquired resistance in plants; stress resistance and
tolerance; yield losses due to diseases and pests; use of transgenic
plants in phytopathology; model systems in phytopathology;
biotechnology in plant protection.

Miscellaneous Policies

The moderation software may (now or possibly in the future) enforce
the following policies:

* Postings must be in plain text. In particular no HTML or mixed
text and HTML posts will be allowed. Excessive quoting and large
sigs are also not allowed. Any post with more than 70%% quoted
material or a sig in excess of 512 bytes will be rejected.
* Postings must be formatted within 80 characters in width (limiting
your lines to 72 characters is recommended), and also must not
exhibit the long/short/long/short/etc misformatting that some
posting agents can produce when misconfigured.
* No binary postings of any sort will be accepted. Exceptions will
be made for cryptographic signatures and such. S/MIME signatures
are usually far too bulky and will probably not be accepted.
* Crossposting is not allowed except through manual intervention by
the moderator. Contact the moderator if you feel you need to
crosspost to sci.bio.phytopathology and any other group.
* Followups can be to no more than one group, or to poster.
* Mail address blacklisting and whitelisting may be implemented as
deemed necessary. In addition a number of anti-spam filters are in
place, and will be expanded as needed.

All posts (with a working return address) will either be returned with
a rejection notice, or posted to the newsgroup and mailing list. One
exception is that rejection notices for the same error are suppressed
for a few minutes after the first one is sent to reduce the danger of
the robomoderator being used as a mailbombing agent.

Posting with a non-replyable address is strongly discouraged. If you
feel you must post with such an address, please make sure you are not
using one in a valid mail domain; appending .invalid to the address is
the recommended way to ensure this.

Robomoderation

The robomoderation software (robomod) enforces various anti-spam and
text formatting requirements. Note that in order to receive rejection
notices or other information from robomod it must have a valid email
address for you. More information on the registration process,
including how to use munged addreses, can be found at
* http://www.robomod.net/register.html
* post to the newsgroup or mailing list with the following text in
the subject (without the quotes): "send file: register.txt"

Submissions from non-registered addresses will be held for human
moderation. The moderators may at their discretion register addresses
for auto-approval, or revert them to hand moderated status.

How To Submit a Post

At a correctly configured site you should simply be able to post to
sci.bio.phytopathology and everything will be managed for you behind
the scenes. If you find this does not work for you, you can submit
directly to the submission agent by mailing your posting to
sci-bio-phytopathology@robomod.net.

Please try the newsgroup first, and be sure to bring any problems to
the attention of your local news administrator so that they can be
dealt with.

The Mailing List

All postings to sci.bio.phytopathology are also distributed to the
mailing list sci-bio-phytopathology@robomod.net, which is available in
both regular and digest format. For subscription information, send
email to sci-bio-phytopathology-request@robomod.net or visit the list
webpage at
http://www.robomod.net/mailman/listinfo/sci-bio-phytopathology.

Likewise, all postings to the mailing list are also distributed to the
newsgroup, so subscribers can use whichever of the newsgroup, list, or
digest formats is most comfortable.
