Sometimes the administrator of the Techserv list is slow to respond. I don't know if that list server is set up to require administrator approval for subscriptions, but I think it is. So there can be some delay. The alternate support list is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Until a few weeks ago, that was completely open for immediate subscription, but we started getting spam. The spammer would subscribe to the list with a weird address, usually on yahoo.com.uk, and would then send spam to the list within seconds, clearly an automated process. So we were forced to make subscriptions to the protel-users family of lists on yahoo only effective on approval. I'm getting another moderator on line soon, and we could have many, which should speed things up, but it normally takes me a day or so to approve subscriptions, more if it is over the weekend in the U.S. I'm sending email to the applicant asking for any personally-written comment which shows the most minimum knowledge of what Protel stands for. Just the words "PC Design" would be enough. The e-mail from which I am apparently sending the request for reply is, of course, a temporary address that will ultimately become a spam trap if any spam appears on it.... * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
