Untold-L was run by Chris and Russ Allbery acted as the archivist for RACMX and Untold-L[4]. Untold-l died an inglorious death in an avalanche of bouncing emails shortly after the owner and listserve changed.[5]

There was an attempt to resuscitate it at grass.org[6], but it didn't last long[7]. Susan "Neon Nurse" Crites established Outside The Lines (OTL) as an alternative to the dying Untold mailing list.[8]

This mailing list corresponds with alt.comics.fan-fiction as a place to mail, exchange, read, and discuss "Untold Legends" -- which you are reading (or writing) for the first time. Sorta.
