Cause of spurious subscription requests
Wooohooo - we finally got to the bottom of this one! Somehow the [EMAIL PROTECTED] addresses had become subscribed to several of our email lists. I don't know how that could have happened, since we require confirmation of all subscriptions, but it did. The result: Every time someone posted to that list, a copy of their email went to the subscribe address, and the list server sent out the usual reply to a subscription request. It wasn't a list configuration matter at all, nor was it anything that should have been able to happen. Live and learn. I'm going through the lists one by one to make sure these addresses are removed. This should be the end of the matter, but if you do get any confirmation emails after this, please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dan the listmom -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Making choices
I'm sure you're all aware of the campaign by Rick Bauer to destroy Low End Mac by telling our advertisers what a terrible site we are for allowing our writers to share some opinions Mr. Bauer disagreed with. http://www.lowendmac.com/musings/02/1030.html The fruits of his campaign: Other World Computing and Crucial Memory were among many sites receiving emails from Mr. Bauer, Russ Arcuri, and possibly others. Both sites contacted us, learned that we were moving such content elsewhere, and continue to support Low End Mac with ads and/or affiliate fees. Mac Zone, Mac Mall, and Verizon DSL have removed us from their affiliate programs without ever contacting us (or if they did, their emails either didn't survive our spam filtering or were not sent as plain text email). I removed all links to Mac Zone about a week ago and all links to Mac Mall tonight. I don't have details of our dealings with Mac Zone, but my records show that over the past year we have generated 16,000 visits, 100 purchases, and nearly $60,000 in sales volume. I am disappointed that they would give this up without saying a thing to us. I recommend that if you value Low End Mac, you take your business to dealers who support our site -- OWC, Crucial Memory, Small Dog Electronics, PowerMax, Club Mac, and MacResQ among them -- and not support businesses such as Mac Mall, Mac Zone, and Verizon DSL that have pulled their support from Low End Mac.

Ethernet problem on Wallstreet
Hello there, listers! Happy holidays! Got yer thinkin' caps on? Here's a curious problem for ya. Have a 300Mhz WallStreet. The machine has a 20GB HD that I've partitioned into 1 8GB drive for OS 10.2 and the rest for OS 9.2.2. I use Outlook Express 5.0.5 and IE 5.1.6 on the OS 9 side and I use OS X Mail and IE 5.2.2 on the OS X side. In my home, I've set up a small network. We have a cable ISP and use a Toshiba cable modem, a LinkSys four port router, and a LinkSys four port hub. My wife and I do both Mac and Windows (her machines run MS XP). The desktop machines are in the dining room and the laptops are in the bedroom. The ultimate in laziness/luxury is to kick back with the laptop on the bed desk. All of machines connect to the network just fine - except for my PowerBook running OS X, but only in the bedroom. It connects fine in the dining room. It shows the proper IP address at each port. The OS 9 side connects just fine at the port in the bedroom. All of my settings appear correct. I've tried recycling the network - turn it off for a few seconds then turn it back on - to no avail. We do not use internet connection sharing or file sharing. We simply like to connect to the internet from different locations. This is a minor nuisance. I'm fairly good a troubleshooting OS 9 and below and can usually troubleshoot most hardware. OS X is a new critter to me. No idea where to start. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Making choices
Since Mr. Bauer is an advertising executive, maybe it would be in our interest to find out just what agency he works for and boycott any company he does advertising for and their products. Paul Wellstone was definitely the poster child for liberalism, but he was a good person, that would never have even thought of trying to destroy someone that he disagreed with as his so called friend Rick Bauer is doing.

Re: Making choices
Dan, As a liberal, I can tell you that this guy is clueless to the concept of free speech. the fact that people have the right to express their opinions means that you will necessarily be offended by something that you hear, see or read. The notion that intelligent people can disagree and still be respectful and civil is central to the Internet's success as a form of communication, and our society in general. I'm a longtime reader of LEM and plan to adjust my purchasing behavior to reflect what I see as a grave injustice. Severing business relationships without notice, because of one email complaint, without reviewing and discussing the problems with the target of the complaint is just plain wrong. I hadn't been following this story, so thanks for bringing it to the lists and to my attention. Fortunately, I already do most of my online tech shopping with OWC, Small Dog and MacResQ. I applaud them for sticking with LEM. I've been a Mac user since 1986 and LEM is an invaluable resource, not to mention just plain good reading. I live right down the street from MacZone/Creative Computers' Santa Monica store, and used to shop there on occasion. Until today, that is. Now, if only someone other than Verizon offered decent DSL service here... Dan, keep up the good work. Keep posting great content. I may not agree with all of it, but I love reading it. best, -Hal On Wednesday, December 11, 2002, at 08:01 PM, Dan Knight wrote: I'm sure you're all aware of the campaign by Rick Bauer to destroy Low End Mac by telling our advertisers what a terrible site we are for allowing our writers to share some opinions Mr. Bauer disagreed with. http://www.lowendmac.com/musings/02/1030.html The fruits of his campaign: Other World Computing and Crucial Memory were among many sites receiving emails from Mr. Bauer, Russ Arcuri, and possibly others.
