With topics, people don't get messages that they don't Specifically sign up for. Also, if you're using topics, be sure to enter in the topic keywords in (parentheses), else the whole thing doesn't work.
In some strange cases, users will get duplicate copies of the same list message. "No dupes" actives a clause that will try to prevent that should it ever happen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------ Charles Frederick (215) 241 7183 Intern, Education Team, IT Department American Friends Service Committee -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2004 3:01 PM To: Chad Frederick Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] Emails Not Getting Through? Have you used the topics? I was really interested in that - I wanted to create basically a sub-group "flow." I 'm not using it yet so I doubt that was it but thanks a lot. I just unchecked "no dupes" for people. I don't really get what that means. Do you know? The interface looks like it was programmed by aliens, not japanese haha.
