But the gmane.org can be read with nntp too, which is a great feature. > > Tuomo, could you please send the whole past list archive in mbox > > format to [EMAIL PROTECTED] as directed on > > http://gmane.org/import.php ? > > Maybe Tuomo would prefer to spend his (little?) free time doing > something else. Rules at http://gmane.org/import.php state that the list owner / admin should do this. At leat he should mail Lars to tell that he agrees. Oh, your address is in rt.fm domain, so probably you are the list owner? Preferably the archive file should come from the mailing list server, and not from a subscribers sopy, because a list subscribers copy will have more unnessesary headers added (Received:, etc), and we should save disk space and most importantly bandwith and time of people reading the archive, especially via nntp. > Perhaps someone who is so inclined could do this instead of him. > I have a copy of all the messages, but in Maildir format. > If someone would like to convert them, let me know. I have no idea what Maildir looks like. Is it "a tar file of a one-message-per-file directory, where the files have names that increase numerically"? If yes, it is also acceptable at gmane.org P.S. In my last post "UTL" was obviously "URL". Sorry... BTW: I can only post to this list through nntp://news.gmane.org/ because I send my e-mail from a computer named tarnica.ctnet.pl while my e-mail address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] My exim issues this command while sending e-mail: SMTP Command: MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and I think that is right, because the mail comes from tarnica.ctnet.pl But the mailing list server rejects my e-mail, and it complains that [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not subscribed to the list. I'm subscribed with [EMAIL PROTECTED] and that is the address at which I receive mail. I subscribe 40 mailing lists, and no other list has any problems about this, only the ion list. -- Miernik ____________________________________________________ ___ ICQ: 4004001 ___/___ tel.: +48608233394 ___/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bush "won" 2000 elections with 537 Florida votes.
