Folks,Before you do anything, if you want the IRCA name on it you'll have to go
thru the BOD and use standard procedure. A lot of you are no doubt looking at
this thread and saying "Not AGAIN!", as we've had this kind of discussion on
here many, many times, when we were using Yahoo! Groups, Topica, or Mailman.
The main thing the Board was looking at came due to some threads in 2005, when
it was decided to stay with what I believe was the default message size, mainly
to accommodate many digest members who contacted the BOD to complain of the
many "Me too" kinds of messages accompanying many of the rants about IBOC. I
realize things have changed since then, but it probably wouldn't hurt to bring
up the subject again.
Any questions about the mailing list software itself need to be directed to
member Risto Kotalampi (ri...@kotalampi.com); I don't know a whole lot about
the software itself, like in terms of what was in a particular upgrade. He
might be able to tell you if there was a something not allowing messages from a
particular ISP; I know from my own job that hotmail.com is often blacklisted
and then whitelisted due to SPAM coming from there.
For right now, PLEASE, let's get back to radio on this list - isn't that the
main purpose of the list? If you're an IRCA member, you have all the BOD email
addresses; please contact them with your comments. If you're not an IRCA
member, you're welcome to contact me (lynnholler...@yahoo.com) and I can send
your message on for the BOD to discuss. I know several of them are on Facebook
as well.
Thanks! Lynn.

Subject: Re: [IRCA] POST SIZE
My vote goes to moving to groups.io. Please do NOT move to Yahoo Groups.
Groups.io - both the web interface and the email list - is about as easy
to use as you can get. Searching for old posts/emails is actually easy
(unlike Yahoo). I have no idea how to search the IRCA mail list for past
posts based on keywords.
I'm glad Pete got his recent post through.... I was wondering where his
Part 1 of the Caribbean report went. I thought it was something on my
end. I've had other posts in the past not make it through. Like the one
I just sent earlier today asking where Part 1 was.
Onward! :^)
