Guys,
Julian is correct, please place [K3], [K2] etc. as the first item on
your subject lines for ALL rig/product specific postings from now on.
We are -extremely- busy focusing on K3 shipments etc. After the dust
clears (withing the next month or so) we'll revisit the reflector/web
page/forum organization issues. Of course we want to make it as easy as
possible for everyone to get the information they need. :-)
In the mean time, please also remember that this list is our primary
method of both getting feedback from customers and for communicating
with you. We occasionally look at and post to some of the other forums
out there, but we can not monitor them or respond to all questions
posted on those lists. We need a single place to focus on, and that's
the primary reason for the current email list structure. Proliferating
more parallel forums only serves to fragment the Elecraft community and
to make it impossible for us to easily communicate with everyone.
Lastly, we DO have a web readable version of this list that allows you
to just peruse the subject lines and to click on the ones you wish to
read. ( http://www.elecraft.com/elist.html ) If you wish to read the
list in that manner, and still stay subscribed so you can post, just set
your email options to 'no mail delivery' on your personal Elecraft list
preferences page. Go to
http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft and scroll to the
bottom of that page. The last option asks you to enter your subscribed
list email address and click on 'edit options'.
Please be patient with us, we'll be working with everyone to simplify
things here as soon as we can catch or breath. (You do want us to focus
on getting your K3s to you, don't you? ;-)

I seem to remember Eric asking this very same thing only a few days
ago. The problem is it is not a normal thing to do and people are
fallible - they just don't remember until after they've hit the Send
button (if then.) I don't think there is anything you can do about it.
Thom and I set up Elecraft message boards at Zerobeat Forums to
provide a solution to this issue - separate boards for each Elecraft
product. However, it does require a critical mass of people -
including those with the answers, as well as the ones with the
questions - to join and participate if it is to be actually useful.
The message boards are there, the rest is up to the users.
