Yeah, I agree.  Get a flood of these is not much fun.

I apologize for not posting on SF.  I did go there, couldn't figure
out what the hell to do (even though I know I am registered there),
probably couldn't remember the password I registered with anyway, so I
punted and just replied to the email.  I realize this is lame on my
part - sorry.

Jim

Maybe.  Although, who'd bother signing up to that list?

It's good that people who might not normally participate in
answering SF questions see the questions and can contribute
if they choose to.  If I have to post people's responses
directly to SF, that might be the best way of handling it.

Those interested in seeing the questions and helping with them.  Say the
various project leaders of the various modules...

Its also bad because it takes up list bandwidth for messages that can't be
replied to and are in a format that is hard to read...  especially when you
realise that I am probably not the only person here who killfiles them. :)
(thus proving they ARE a waste of bandwidth since -someone- deletes them out
of hand)

Re: [AOLSERVER] Responding to SourceForge-generated mail

2002-10-21 Thread Scott Goodwin
The bugs, features, patches tracking email notifications could be sent to
a separate list, handled the same way the AOLserver discussion list is. I
just checked the SF admin page for the bug tracker, and the email address
that the notices are being sent to is the AOLserver discussion group (ok,
duh).

If someone knows how to create a new listserv mailing list, say
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]', we can direct all of the bugs, features,
patches traffic to that list, and you'd need to sign up there to see them
via email. Failing that, we could set up a Yahoo or other group to direct
it to. I'd prefer it be handled the same way the discussion list is,
though. There are probably other ways of doing it that might be even
better.

/s.
