Warning messages from list server
Just a reminder to anyone receiving automated warning messages from the list server. This situation is beyond our control. Maclaunch runs the server, and we have reported the problem to them. The messages are generated automatically. There is nothing we can do about them short of unsubscribing addresses from the list. We cannot fix it. We are working on our own solution, but it's a slow process. If anyone has strong PHP and MySQL skills -- especially involving sending and receiving email -- we are desperately looking for help. Our new software will be a lot better when it gets done, and we will release it as open source once it's up and running. But until we can manage things like reading incoming email and sending it out again, managing subscription requests, etc., we're stuck with the current setup. -- Dan Knight, president, Cobweb Publishing, Inc. http://cobwebpublishing.com http://lowendmac.com http://digital-views.com http://digigraphica.com http://lowendpc.com http://reformed.net You shouldn't need a Passport to use the World Wide Web. -- Quadlist is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Notes from the listmom
In response to some recent issues, I've added the following paragraphs to the list FAQs: What about anti-spam services? We already take the steps necessary to keep spam off our lists. Whatever filtering you do with your email software and your email service is up to you. That said, we take a dim view of anti-spam services such as Spam Arrest that require the sender of a message to respond to a message from the anti-spam service before allowing the recipient to receive the posting. Such a service inconveniences anyone who posts to the list and is unnecessary. These are all closed lists, so there is no spam. Only those who have requested a subscription and confirmed their subscription are allowed to post. If that is not good enough for you, please don't inconvenience our members by asking them to jump through hoops to keep your mailbox spam free. Any subscriber using this kind of anti-spam service will receive one warning. If the situation is not resolved quickly, the subscriber will be banned. The burden should be on the spammers, not innocent list members. And the following to our netiquette page: Never send test messages to the list. Test when you have something to say to the list by saying it, not by sending a test message. And a reminder: Except for the swap list, all lists are set up so that hitting reply will generate a reply to the list. Because the swap list is not a discussion list, it is set up so that replies go to the original sender, not to the list. (Exception: digest mode.) Hope this helps thing run more smoothly.

Was wondering if anyone knows if I can get a PPC upgrade card for it? Yep, there are severals. The most stabile one I met was the Apple Upgrade Card, making a PowerMacintosh 800 out of the Quadra 800. You'll get a PPC 601 running at 66MHz. Runs great at OS 8.1 . OS 8.6 is possible with a hack, but wouldn't advise that. Have a look for such a card at the swaplist, or goto http://www.secondhandmac.com or ebay, if you like that. I kinda messed it up when I tried to install OS 8, cause now all I get is that little Mac that looks pissed at me, and I guess he should be, I did make him not start ;-) Make a clean install, safe from Old System Folder all you need and trash the rest.
