Re: *** ADMIN: Problems With Mailing List



   Thanks for starting this conversation Steve. I'd help too. Without
   getting too far out of bounds, would it be possible for [1]midrange.com
   to host? Or another place - I'm just partial to [2]midrange.com. Scott
   - what do you think? I'd be happy to talk with David.

        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 :-)
