 <<CrossPoint/FreeXP - Support
 
-FreeXP users can get extensive support whenever
-faced with problems and/or having questions. If
-you're facing a problem that cannot be solved with
-the online help or an [updated version], please feel at 9
-free to use one of the following support channels:
-
-
-■  Post your question to one of the following support
-   forums:
-
-   FidoNet    <<XPOINT>>                  (International)
-              <<POINTS>>                  (International)
-              <<CROSSPOINT.OPENXP16.GER>> (German)
-              <<CROSSPOINT.GER>>          (German)
-              <<CROSSPOINT.EXPERT.GER>>   (German)
-
-   UseNet     <<crosspoint.openxp16.pub.allgemein
-              <<de.comm.software.crosspoint
-
-   eMail      <<support\@freexp.de>>      (Mailing list)
-
-   Please note that you're welcome to post in English
-   in the German forums.
-
-   Almost all participants in these forums are
-   experienced CrossPoint users, therefore, you
-   should almost certainly find a solution to your
-   problems. Should your Server not carry the
-   respective forum, please contact your SysOp.
-   He/she should be able to get it for you.
-
-
-■  <<Bug reports>> should be directed as follows
-   (in descending priority):
-
-
-   UseNet     Write an article in:
-              <<crosspoint.openxp16.pub.allgemein
-
-              This is the general and publicly
-              accessible newsgroup for FreeXP.
-              It is available at the news servers
-              news.kannofant.de and news.t-online.de
-              (both port 119).
-
-              Alternatively, you can post your bug
-              report to <<de.comm.software.crosspoint>>,
-              which is a forum for all CrossPoint
-              versions and should be available at
-              *any* (German) news server and at most
-              English news servers.
-
-              The FreeXP developer newsgroup
-              (<<crosspoint.openxp16.pub.developer>>)
-              is also publicly accessible but it
-              should not be used for bug reports and
-              such. This group is available at the
-              news server news.kannofant.de *only*.
-
-
-   eMail      Write to: <<support\@freexp.de
-              With this address you have access to
-              the FreeXP mailing list to which the
-              developers are also subscribed to and
-              which you may join yourself if you
-              wish. To do this, write an eMail to
-              "<<listserver\@kruemel.org>>" with the
-              text in the message body (not in the
-              subject!) "<<subscribe openxp16-list>>".
-              Unsubscribing from the list is done the
-              same way by using the message text
-              "<<unsubscribe openxp16-list>>".
-
-
-   WWW        <<http://www.freexp.de/
-              The official homepage of FreeXP. Under 
-              "Über FreeXP" all contact channels can
-              be accessed with a single mouse click. 
-              A Web site for FreeXP in English is 
-              located at: <<http://www.fido.vmailer.net
-
-
-   Fido       Echomail in: <<XPOINT>>
-              Although not directly linked to the
-              FreeXP developers, the echo moderator
-              is in <<very>> regular contact with
-              them and will gladly pass on any bug
-              reports. The echo is on the R24, R25
-              and Z1 echomail backbones and so there
-              should be no problems getting the echo.
-
-              <<CROSSPOINT.OPENXP16.GER>>
-              Here, you are connected via a gate to
-              the general newsgroup of FreeXP (see
-              under "UseNet"). All echomails that
-              you write in this area are "gated" to
-              the newsgroup and all Usenet postings
-              in this newsgroup are gated to the
-              echomail area.
-
-              <<CROSSPOINT.OPENXP16.GER>> is not an
-              official Fido Area - ask your SysOp if
-              he can get it for you (it is at least
-              available on the R24 backbone).
-              Alternatively, contact Christian von
-              Busse (<<2:240/2188>>), who runs the Gate
-              and delivers the area to the BBR.
-
-              Of course, you can also send bug
-              reports to the general German
-              CrossPoint areas <<CROSSPOINT.GER>> and/or
-              <<CROSSPOINT.EXPERT.GER>>. However, you
-              should be aware that responses may take
-              longer and that not that many
-              developers will see your bug report.
+If faced with a problem that cannot be solved with
+the online help or by obtaining an [updated version], at 9
+any one of the numerous support channels listed below
+may be used:
+
+
+■ FidoNet:
+
+        <<XPOINT>> (International CrossPoint echo)
+        <<POINTS>> (International Points echo)
+
+        Although the FreeXP developers don't monitor
+        either of the above echos, one of the FreeXP
+        contributors does. If he is unable to answer
+        your questions himself, he will gladly pass
+        on your questions to the developers.
+
+■ Newsgroups:
+
+        <<crosspoint.freexp.support>> (User support)
+        <<crosspoint.freexp.dev>> (Developer support)
+
+        The above newsgroups may be obtained from the
+        News Server: <<news.freexp.de>>
+
+■ Mailing lists:
+
+        <<support-list\@freexp.de>> (User support)
+        <<dev-list\@freexp.de>> (Developer support)
+
+        The easiest way to subscribe to the above
+        mailing lists is to visit the German Web site
+        at <<http://www.freexp.de>> and "sign up" online. 
+        Alternatively, send an email to
+        <<support-list-request\@freexp.de>> with <<help>> as 
+        the subject.
+
+■ Web forums:
+
+        Numerous Web forums are available on the
+        German Web site at <<http://www.freexp.de>> and
+        posts in English are welcome.
+
+<<Note>>: Newsgroups, mailing lists and Web forums are
+      all mirrored each to the other. It is therefore
+      unnecessary to post identical messages to more
+      than one support "channel". In fact, it is
+      undesirable to do so, as your post will be
+      duplicated on every "channel"!
+
+      <<Example>>: You post a messsage to the User 
+      support <<mailing list>>. Your post will be 
+      automatically mirrored to the User support 
+      newsgroup and the User support Web forum.
+
+■ eMail:
+
+        <<support\@freexp.de>>
+
+■ WWW:
+        <<http://www.freexp.de
+
+        This is the official Home of FreeXP. Under
+        the menu option "Über FreeXP" all support
+        channels can be accessed with a single mouse
+        click. An English FreeXP Web site is located
+        at <<http://www.freexp.co.uk
