Don, Lately, I have been receiving a measurable number of posts addressed both to the BN list and directly to my own e-mail address. If I leave the BN list right now, I will continue to receive list mail. I wonder if some listers are replying to all, rather than just to the BN list. Check your To line. are there other addresses along with the BN list address. Also check your CC and BCC lines.
In addition to this, it would be helpful to know if there is a bug with the actual BN list. Sincerely, Jerry Weinger to Jerry Weinger DSCP-OSIA DSN 444-7553 COM 215 737-7553 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 26, 2003 3:07 AM To: Contribute Braillenote Subject: [Braillenote] list malfunction. There appears to be a fault in the list management system; please can someone try and put it right. I have just returned from a week's holiday. So that I wouldn't be swamped with emails on my return, two days before leaving, indeed on November 15, I applied to temporarily leave the list. I was asked to confirm my wish, and this I did. I then received the customary acknowledgment with instructions on how to rejoin; the usual automated message. Imagine my surprise next morning to find 22 emails for consideration. with only one day more to go before leaving home, I sent another request to leave the list, this being now November 16. The usual procedure was entered into, and I then received another automated message acknowledging my request with instructions on how to rejoin. I have just returned and find 195 emails awaiting my attention. We all know that when this number of emails is in the system, the process of deleting or storing takes infinitely longer than when dealing with smaller numbers. It'll probably now take me several days before I catch up. Has anyone else experienced this difficulty? surely I'm not being sorted out for special treatment, but I recollect that when this new system came into operation a few weeks ago, I had to make special application to rejoin the list. I would welcome some reply from PDI, with an assurance, if possible, that this fault has been detected and will be sorted out. yours, with a now overloaded work schedule, Don Cooper. ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.pulsedata.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
