Good
thinking ! There's a welcome message that goes out with email, we should
add that to the welcome message.
Thanks
for the great (and now that you mention it, obvious :) )
suggestion...

Hi,
Could someone who joins the list for the first time get a
message stating that they might be moderated and their posts might be delayed
as a result? I had no idea about this for a while and I was under the
impression that Yahoo Groups simply didn't work until you pointed it
out.

David,
I
posted about this the other day -- your first post is moderated and
thereafter all posts should come straight through. In a m! inority of cases,
some users don't seem to be changed from moderated to unmoderated after
their first post, and when the moderators spot this (for people that post
regularly I guess) we'll change it. If that's you, and we've not
spotted it, drop us a note and we'll change your
settings.
This policy has allowed us to keep the list free of a large number of
attempts by recruitment agents to post irrelevant job ads for C++ and Java
programmers - apart from the few times one of our over-keen moderators
approves the posts anyway (and I've never done that, erm, honest).
It's more work for us moderators, but it keeps the list spam
free.
David - your messages were being moderated; I've gone in and fixed
this already. You should now be able to time your message posts in
microseconds.... :)
Best,
Steven

Well it I understand what you are saying, but
why does it take over 12 hours for my post to show up on the form?
This is one more slow "pony" express mailing list.
Subject (Can someone help me understand this price info and what I
get for it) Post on 9/8/06 @ 7:01 pm
Shows up on list @ 10:03 am 9/9/06. This is not the
first time I have seen this.

RE: [flexcoders] Moving flexcoders to Google Groups- would you come
along?
Guys, this thread rears it's head every couple of months.
If we move to googlegroups, will we find ourselves 2 months down
the line with a thread asking why we don't move to something else (or
back to yahoo) ?
Seriously, there's a pattern to this thread ... any second now
someone is going to ask why we don't move to Adobe forums, then we're
going to be asked why we don't have a knowledge-base, and then I'm going
to have to step in and moderate the list and say that we're not going to
move the list for the time being, or split it into smaller lists, or all
the other spin off discussions that the vocal few will have, and we'll
ask people to move the discussion offlist.
Seriously, this list works for the majority, so if it's ok with
everyone else I think the long-time list members here will be
appreciative of us not hashing it up again.
Thanks,
Steven

I'd have to agree. I have almost the complete flexcoders in
my gmail. It's the fastest and easiest way to find help, besides
looking at the docs. I realize thought that not everybody has
that, so I'm sure a better solution would probably work.

I don't face any problem with current Flexcoders mailing-list.
I have been on this since it was started and never faced any
problem.
As far searching is concerned, I think it's little
time taking. Since I am on this since so long, I have almost all the
flexcoders mail on my Gmail or Outlooks PST.
But I still
search using MSN/Google, sometimes
mail-archive..
