Sorry, I cannot find a reference to an index of old echolists. In this
packet I see that someone else has confirmed the presence of othernets
in the Elist.
The Elist had always advertised itself as not being a Fido net
instrument, but a place for interested moderators of any network to list
and thus publize their echos.
