RE: *** ADMIN: Problems With Mailing List



   Scott


   Thank you very much for what you do for us.


   I am afraid that your employer, your doctor or your wife may put the
   hammer down and bring the "extra stuff" to an end.


   I support your efforts to use a web forum.  I see that they can be
   hosted for about $10 a month.  I am ready, willing and able to fund
   it.  Heck that is the price of just two Red Bulls.


   If you can draft a committee, they should be able to take over.  I am
   available.


   This community should be able to maintain itself.  One guy should not
   have to do it all.

   I see that you guys noticed this -- so I figured I'd better explain.


   Yesterday, I went to my own house to use the flatbed scanner (which I
   don't have at my mother-in-law's house) and I logged on to an older
   computer that I had there, and suddenly was flooded with all of the
   e-mails on this mailing list since the end of May! Apparently, somehow
   messages from this mailing list were not coming up as "new messages" in
   my e-mail at my mother-in-law's house.


   I found the problem, and fixed it.   Then I saw all of the

   administrative tasks that I had not done since May -- yikes!  After
   doing them, of course, several messages that had been held up finally
   made it to the mailing list.


   I'm also having extensive problems with digests -- which I have been
   fixing periodically by hand on the server...  but I'm having big
   problems here.


   As I mentioned here last year, I absolutely HATE this e-mail list
   setup, and really would prefer to replace it with a set of web-based
   forums.

   Unfortunately, since my spinal cord injury, my body has been absolutely
   exhausted.  By the time I get finished with my regular daily job, I
   have no energy left for the "extra" stuff that I always used to do.
   I've been going to bed at 11pm (23:00) -- which would shock anyone who
   was familiar with my old habits of staying up until 3:00 or 4:00 every
   morning!  So I haven't pursued the web forum idea any further -- but, I
   do think it's the way to go.


   ANYWAY...  the problem has now been corrected, this list should be
   working as well as it was before :-)
