Re: Listserver question
Yes, if you click on the "Advanced search" link, it will explain how to
specify your search criteria. Among other things, it does say that boolean
operators like AND and OR are case sensitive, and need to be in CAPS.
Another alternative is to just use the '+' (plus) sign to specify your
criteria. Thus you could search on:
+matthew +bracchi

Subject:Re: Listserver question
Andy,
Interesting indeed. I have done a little experimenting since your post.
If I
just search on "Matthew and Bacchi" I get many posts, with duplicates.
Here
is one particular selection, a single post that shows up twice. Notice
how
it has two different confidence levels for the same posting, wierd.

But if I search for "Matthew AND Bacchi" I get fewer responses, and none
are
duplicates. It appears to me that over the years I have been using this
search without the keyword "AND" in caps. For whatever reason, the search
engine interprets this differently than I expected. Does this appear to
be
normal behavior to you? The strange part is though, why would the lower
case
word "and" cause the engine to spit out the same post twice?
If the maintainer does follow this discussion, maybe they would like to
comment.

Re: Listserver question
Interesting... I guess I spoke a little too soon. While I only did get one
hit, the hit was for a post from a while back, not from yesterday. I
wonder if there *is* a problem with the search engine, or if it takes a
certain period of time before newer posts are searchable (maybe only past
months are searchable?).

This is not an IBM facility, so I wouldn't know the answer to your
specific question. However, I just tried doing a search for the post I
made yesterday in response to the originator of this thread, and I only
got one hit. My criteria were:
raibeck AND repro
I tried it with both Netscape and IE. Do you get duplicate hits for this?
If so, it might not hurt to clean up your temporary internet files/cache
and history, then see if that makes any difference.

While we're on this subject...I frequently use the searching capabilities
of
this site, but notice that the hits are all listed twice. Is there anyone
who
is involved with this web site monitoring this list? If not I'll
eventually
go and post a note to the webmaster.

Listserver question
Hi, Is it possible to see also your own postings to the listserver? Sometimes the posting doen't arrive, so now i must check it with an other account. Tia, Maurice van 't Loo Compare Computers The Netherlands +31-(0)6-18052370
Re: Listserver question
You can send a command to the list server.
Address a note to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the note, put the
following:
SET ADSM-L REPRO
And that's it... you should receive a confirmation back from the list
server indicating that your command was processed. Thereafter, you should
get a copy of your own postings (it may or may not be concurrent with the
acknowledgement note, but you'll see it eventually).

Andy
