I get similar posts on the CDROM list - not very often, but still occasionally. My answer is simple. Since these are normally unsubscribed, and so come through moderation, I simply reject the post, *but* place a comment in the proper place referring the poster to the correct list or email address, including where relevant instructions on subscribing. What this means is that the post does not come through to the list, but the poster is given the information on where to make their report. So far it has worked well. > > Until then, I think Marcus's way is practical to solve current situation. > > > Marcus, > > >>> I see descriptions including the e-mail address at the end of > >>> http://download.openoffice.org/all_rc.html > > > > Am 03.12.2010 um 12:35 schrieb Marcus Lange <marcus.la...@oracle.com>: > >> + other.html and all_beta.html - if there would be a Beta release right > >> now. > >> > >> Due to the request from other community members I've added a "Report > >> broken links" section to the download webpages when they got redesigned > >> many months ago.
