Many of the directories have their own announcement lists as part of
the service they provide. These include http://ezine-universe.com/ ,
http://paml.alastra.com/ , and others.

Directory and announcement list editors can be quite troublesome at times.
I've had enough problems with the editors at Yahoo! to last me a lifetime.
The best course of action is just to request a change in your description.
With announcement lists, you could request that they post an additional
message to the list with the right information and to correct the previous
post in the list's archive.

Definitely let them know. Editing that misrepresents your ezine should be
totally unacceptable, but unfortunately it happens quite often.

http://New-List.com/ and http://listserv.classroom.com/archives/new-list.html
(formerly the Internet Scout Project NEW-LIST) are the two largest.
