Email addy for Samaritans out-of-date


From: Joel Ray Holveck
Subject: Email addy for Samaritans out-of-date
Date: Mon, 16 Oct 2000 18:34:53 -0700 (PDT)
User-agent: SEMI/1.8.6 (Fukuoka) FLIM/1.9.2 (Shin-Tanabe) Emacs/20.7 MULE/4.0 (HANANOEN)

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
 not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

In GNU Emacs 20.7.4 (i386-unknown-freebsdelf4.0, X toolkit)
 of Tue Aug  8 2000 on detlev.piqnet.org
configured using `configure  --with-pop --with-iouid --with-gcc'

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

M-x doctor (lisp/play/doctor.el) has a routine to mention the
Samaritans if the user discusses suicide.  However, the anonymous
email address is out-of-date.  The correct address is
samaritans@anon.twwells.com instead.

In today's web-based world, we may also want to include the
Befrienders International, a network of suicide crisis centers.  The
homepage is at http://www.befrienders.org/ and lists voice numbers for
crisis centers worldwide.  (Samaritans is a UK center which provides
the English-language email services for Befrienders International, as
well as 24-hour phone lines in Ireland.)
