>> Is there a way to get related messages posted properly Thanks. I tried the second method and it didn't work. I requested a message and it was sent to me as an attachment. The address automatically inserted was for the original sender not the mailing list so I changed that to the mailing list, but, of course, my reply did not get posted as a follow on to the message. I also checked the earlier discussion you referenced which seemed to indicate that I should subscribe to cygwin-allow. I tried that and received the following:
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at sourceware.org. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: ezmlm-manage: fatal: I don't accept messages at this address (inlocal and/or inhost don't match) (#5.1.1) --- Enclosed are the original headers of the message. I guess this is why most of the postings aren't properly linked. If I'm doing something wrong or there is anything else I should try I'd be glad to hear of it. >> as followons in the mailing list archives without subscribing to the >> mailing list? >Yes.
