You are not even a member of COM, so what you can know about 'crossposting'.

if you would be member and use Wincom you could read the help file on that.

Please accept my humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

It is not a usenet forums. There can be as many receivers as one needs, but

all should be relevant ones. BTW there is an organizer for Varnasrama

(Development), I know that original organizer has quit but Prishnigarbha is

the organizer at the moment. Any conference in COM has an organizer.

 

Following is from guidelines of COM:

 

>When you want to post a text in more than one conference, post to all

>conferences at the same time (use the "Add R." button) rather than posting

>a separate copy to each conference. In this way, the COM software is able

>to store and transfer a single copy, and users who are a member of more

>than one of these conferences will see the article only once. Making

>separate postings of your text to each conference annoys the readers

>rather than emphasize the message content as well as wastes harddisk

>resources. Don't add one hundred conferences as receiver to your text.

>Post only to relevant conferences.
