WARNING TO COMMERCIAL USERS:
  Unsolicited e-mail advertising is considered by many to be
  a crime on the internet, despite what list-marketers may
  tell you.  It _will_ ruin your reputation, and may cause you
  to lose your access.

BIZ.MARKETPLACE.* is now retro-moderated.  Inappropriate
  articles or outlandish subjects may be selectively cancelled;
  if this happens, e-mail will be sent to the From: address.
