A number of points arising, since the list transferred server.
1. REJECTED POSTS
- Please note you can ONLY send from your subscribed address. Any address
the listserver doesn't know about belongs to a non-subscriber.
- You cannot send mails containing HTML, MS Mime.dat rubbish or
attachments. They must be plain text only.
- If you subscribe to the digest you can now post to the list. The address
to send to is filmscanners@halftone.co.uk *not* filmscanners_digest. I
have amended the 'reply to' field of digest headers so this is clearer.
2. KICKED OFF
- It being Xmas a lot of people haven't cleared their POP mailboxes, and I
have had to remove them because their mail has been bounced by their
ISP.
- Autoresponders. Please *don't* set up autoresponders which are going to
reply to every list mail that you are on holiday.
- Bouncing addresses or autoresponders mean I get the entire list volume
in my mailbox for *each* of the addresses involved. If you get removed
it is not out of spite but necessity. You are welcome to resubscribe
once you have resolved the delivery problem.
3. CANNOT UNSUBSCRIBE
- Inevitably people are still sending to the old Majordomo address, which
was left active until yesterday by my ISP. I have been removing those
people manually, but if you have problems please mail me.
- The sig line at the bottom of each list mail didn't make it clear that
the subject line needs to specify unsubscribe filmscanners or
unsubscribe filmscanners_digest, depending which you subscribe to.
Sorry. This is now fixed.
4. INTERMITTENT SERVICE
- My apologies for this, but the ADSL router has been crashing between 5
and 40 times a day. I finally managed to locate and install a firmware
update yesterday, which appears to have fixed things. Thank ****!
5. HAPPY NEW YEAR
:-)
