Folks,
I just returned from a couple days unexpected stay at the hospital, so I
hope Eric will excuse this one (hopefully) last post on this subject -
When I returned, all 144 of the [Elecraft] messages were lined up in the
proper folder, and it took me about 20 minutes to scan through them all
(I did read most of them), I sorted out 4 that I will respond to and
deleted many that were of no further interest. I could not do that as
quickly or efficiently on any web-based forum that I have worked with.
I do contribute to this list frequently, and if it ever goes web-based,
my contributions will likely become more scarce is about all I can say
about it.
Thank you Eric for keeping this list in a format I can handle as I chose
to, rather than having some web designer who 'thinks' he knows how I
should best handle the resulting traffic.
73,
Don W3FPR

Ahh - I see this was more about changing the list to a message board
format.
We also will be keeping the list email based. As several have mentioned
before, it is very easy to set up your email client program to filter
individual messages to separate folders based on words in the subject
line or body. I use this extensively to handle the huge email load I
receive daily. [Elecraft] list posts go to the 'Elecraft List' folder,
and even K3 posts can go to a 'K3' sub folder. None of the list postings
are ever seen in my main inbox.
