Yes all the people responding to the list address missed the request to respond to the support address which is why the list got unnecessarily fluttered with these responses.
Unfortunately due to the nature of the server problems that Gordon and Lyn had they probably had no option but to make this request for confirmation of emails through the list address but hopefully things will calm down now.

I understand you wanting to keep people on your list but you have turned me off to the list and I can care less if this causes you to remove me from the list, but asking everyone to reply to an open thread with their email that the entire list is receiving it wrong, and you need to find another way to run your list.

However, there's just one slight problem with the responses we've received from some members. In the original request, I did make it clear that we require the email addresses of those who wish to remain on the list, and I asked for the address to be placed in the body of the message. >> >> In some cases, we have received mail with subject lines such as "Stay", "Yes", and similar things. Also those messages and others besides didn't contain the address within the body of the message. If you think that you may be one of those who omitted to place their address within the body of their request, would you mind please repeating the exercise, this time making sure to include your address within the main body of the message; email address, I mean, not your geographical address. :) it would also be helpful if you'd add a meaningful subject line such as "I'd Like to stay on", which ever list or lists you wish to remain with. >> >> If you take more than one of our groups, such as Mac Access and Techno-Chat, please feel free to include both in the same message if you wish. Again, if you are one of those who did put their email address in the body of your message, and if you made it clear which list or lists you wish to remain a member of, then you may safely disregard this request. >> >> Thank you for your time, and my apologies for the repeated request to those of you who either complied with the original address or who do not wish to be ported over. >> >> Finally, as I said, the response has been phenomenal and we appreciate that. Please understand that we don't have the time to respond to them all individually. Be assured, however, that your request has been noted and will be acted on shortly. When the new list is created, you may receive a greeting message from the server. Please don't respond to that message, and please just wait for one of us to announce that the new list has gone live before you post to it. Gordon is, as I speak, working on the project. We have today acquired new hardware and he's in the process of deploying and configuring it all as I write. >> >> Warmest regards >> >> Lynne >> >> <--- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net ---> >> >> To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net >> >> You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive: >> <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html> >> or at the public Mail Archive: >> <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/>. >> Subscribe to the list's RSS feed from: >> <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/maillist.xml> >> >> As the Mac Access Dot Net administrators, we do our very best to ensure that the Mac-Access E-Mal list remains malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free.
