  Subj: Setting up new account  
 From: dradams@lamar.colostate.edu 
  
    We had a newsmail account that was set up by an employee who had 
 recently left.  Although there were three of us (including the employee 
 who just left, who will be referred to as "employee A") who had access 
 to the account.  We are wanting to keep using the newsgroup, but the 
 problem is this--About a month before emplyee A left, our other employee 
 discovered that she was not receiving the messages that were posted, and 
 yet I still was.  Shortly thereafter, we decided to stop using the 
 newsgroup.  Now, one short month later, we have decided that it would be 
 advantageous to use that newsgroup once again.  The problem is that I am 
 still the only one who is receiving the messages.  Both her and I can 
 post messages, but it only shows up on my account.  We are unable to 
 contact employee A, as she has moved out of state and has left no way of 
 contacting her. 
    Our only reasonable action is to create a new newsgroup.  How do I do 
 that?  Or is there something we can do so that my co-worker will receive 
 those messages on our existing newsgroup?  We still do not know why she 
 stopped receiving them to begin with. 
    But that presents another problem.  Employee A posted a huge majority 
 of the messages, which can only be deleted by her.  So, we have no way 
 (that we know of) of "cleaning the slate".  Is there a way we can use 
 the same newsgroup and eliminate the existing posts without her?  This 
 would only be worthwhile if we could get my co-worker's email to receive 
 the messages.
