Jim, I sometimes add a "save" subdirectory to a main directory, if something I want comes in, and I want to be sure it is never deleted, I copy it to the save folder. I might look into the auto delete thing I mentioned upthread. 73s and thanks, Dave (NK7Z/NNR0DC) https://www.nk7z.net Award Ma

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

I would leave the list if it went to a message board, sorting would be impossible, and given the "random walk" this list allows with regards to subject, sorting is needed. 73s and thanks, Dave (NK7Z/NNR0DC) https://www.nk7z.net Award Manager, 30MDG Grid Contest ARRL Technical Specialist ARRL Vo

Don, That is exactly how I do it, and how long I take to trim... I believe you can automate that process using the folder properties... I tend to stay away from auto trimming, but I think it could be done... Thunderbird is wonderful... My only carp is that it won't play a sound based on the

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

Walter, I also like groups.io very much. I suspect that the Elecraft reflector was intended to be more of a tech support tool and not a general rag chew place. The Elecraft reflector is the only non groups.io forum that I participate in. They work well with both direct email and a searchable for

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

I've suggested POPfile, which does naive bayesian filtering -- which is almost magical. Yes, Thunderbird can do a great job, but it won't filter off topic, and you have to do a lot of work. With POPfile, you classify a few messages (KX3, K3S, Antenna, Digital Modes, whatever) and the filter

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

groups.io provides excellent email list management with a good message board. It also supports subgroups, which can be handy. The hashtag feature would be really nice for tagging K2, K3, KX3, etc. I’ve moved all the groups I manage to that system. The North America SOTA group

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

I find it mind boggling that you guys like email for this and find it hard to search a message board. Have you ever tried a well-set up vBulletin board? It's S much easier. But I'm terribly outvoted here, so this is my last email on this subject. Barry LU/W2UP -- Sent from: http://elecra

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

Yes. I read more than two dozen email reflectors, and Thunderbird makes it all very easy. Every reflector has its own mailbox (that shows up as a folder), and I occasionally add a folder for special discussions (like FD, county expeditions, tech projects). Those special emails get hand-sorted.

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

I'm with Don on this one. I use Mozilla Thunderbird for email, and its filters allow just about any degree and depth of sorting that one might like. Message boards are a chore, IMHO. The Elecraft list is an example of a wide breadth of topics that virtually demand some sort of filtering to allo

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

Phil, Right you are! My email is sorted automatically when it is received (I use Thunderbird although other email clients have similar capability). I put it into separate folders with the filters based on something in the subject line. For instance, I use a filter to place all email contain

It is just that too many do not seem to have fully grasped email after about 3 plus decades. They seem to be content with (and sometimes confused by) HTML. Sent from my iPad > On Dec 29, 2018, at 2:47 PM, Lynn W. Taylor, WB6UUT > wrote: > > There are lots of great tools to sort E-Mail. I've

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

There are lots of great tools to sort E-Mail. I've mentioned them before. What I hate about message boards: someone will sign in, leave question, people will jump in to solve the problem -- and the person asking may never return to the board. Message Boards (Forums, whatever) are a pull tech

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

Barry, Nabble is not controlled by Elecraft, contact the Nabble administrator about that problem. The only email group that Elecraft controls is the Elecraft email list from elecraft at mailman dot qth dot net. Please *don't* switch to a message board! I can't find anything on those things.

Re: [Elecraft] Off-topic, but I need help.

I think there's something more broken with Nabble, as there are plenty of posts that include the model number in the title that aren't filtered to the correct subgroup. I really wish management would join the 21st century and switch from email to a message board to eliminate all the useless emails

Sorry for the off-topic posting, but maybe someone has an easy answer here. When looking at the KX3 topics, the latest I see is from mid 2017. When I go to the Main Board and select List by Topics, then I see all the topics including those for 2018. The problem is it includes all the other forms
