Re: [Texascavers] how do I communicate with the list owner?

charles:  how strange.  did you send this message today?

This is a reminder, sent out once a month, about your texascavers.com
mailing list memberships.  It includes your subscription info and how
to use it to change it or unsubscribe from a list.

You can visit the URLs to change your membership status or
configuration, including unsubscribing, setting digest-style delivery
or disabling delivery altogether (e.g., for a vacation), and so on.

In addition to the URL interfaces, you can also use email to make such
changes.  For more info, send a message to the '-request' address of
the list (for example, mailman-requ...@texascavers.com) containing
just the word 'help' in the message body, and an email message will be
sent to you with instructions.

If you have questions, problems, comments, etc, send them to
mailman-ow...@texascavers.com.  Thanks!

at any rate this was the message I was trying to get to - whoever 
sent me that notice this morning . . .


I was talking with mark minton about the attachments issue and he 
said that the new mexico list addresses it by simply filtering any 
and all attachments out.  so if a message says see attached document 
it simply isnt there.


I truely cannot remember what the current status of attachments is - 
allowed? not allowed?  as someone who can only get modem dialup it is 
an ongoing source of irritation esp as the attachments get huger and 
huger - and I often have to call my server and have them do the 
deleting as it freezes the connection completely.


I have learned not to mention it to the group at large.  several 
people were considerate enough to flood me with random attachments 
for several days.  a punishment I suppose for bringing the issue up.


could you let me know what the actual policy is?  thanks, and for all you do,

Nancy

No, this is something left over from the old software that Bill used 
when he maintained the list.  I sent him an email asking him to look 
into it and turn off that old notification email reminder.  You can 
safely delete it.


Did you have a question or something I could help you with?  Since 
you noticed that the emails in the original were not routing, you 
tried to send me something?


Thanks
Charles

2007-03-26 Thread Carl Kunath
So, Charles, what was the true story of Nancy's attachment.  Was she being 
spammed individually or was there an attachment sent to the entire list, or ???

BTW, can you please tell me the number of current subscribers to the 
TexasCavers list?

  Nancy, I'll build those aliases to point to my email, but those are left 
  over from an older software that used to run the mailing list.

  My email address is wo...@justfamily.org and a slew of addresses in the 
  texascavers.com domain route to me, webmaster, postmaster, abuse, etc.

  What can I help you with?

Nancy never gave me any more information, I received more from others 
than anything, I'm not going to loose any sleep over a single reported 
issue.  We currently have 312 subscribers.

Re: [Texascavers] how do I communicate with the list owner?

2007-03-26 Thread Charles 'wokka' Goldsmith
Nancy, I don't govern the list, nor moderate it, Bill advised me when I 
took it over not to try, just to let the group self moderate.  Makes 
less work for me and it's worked so far.


Most people are on broadband these days and its easy to forget when 
sending attachments that some recepients may not have the bandwidth 
available to receive attachments.


I wish that it was as simple as me changing a setting to prevent you 
from getting further attachments, but it is not.  The only thing that I 
can suggest to prevent any further problems is to read the list mail 
from a web client, I'd highly suggest google's mail, gmail.com, its user 
friendly, free and works very well.  I use it for a backup to my 
personal email.


Thanks
Charles
