Hi all,

Brief admin message for your edification.

1) I've updated the mime filter for Indyramp mailing lists. This should
eliminate the double-spacing that some people were evoking through certain
mail clients, and it may do a better job of stripping advertising footers
from certain mail services. It will continue to strip mime attachments
and dispose of them--files should not be sent to the masq list. If you
encounter any problems with the filter, let me know in private email.

2) PLEASE watch the amount of previous messages you quote when you reply
to or followup to a message. A few of you continue to include the entire
message tacked on the end of the message; this is unnecessary and wastes
the list's time and diskspace. It also makes the digests less usable. In
the future, if quoting isn't kept under control, I will start filtering
posts from chronic quotemonsters. One person has already been granted this
treatment, and while it hasn't seemed to help reduce the person's quoting,
it has cut back on list traffic a bit.

3) The transition to the new list server seems to have worked. Those of
you using the web interface will probably see the most improvement, but
general operations are faster, and admin tasks are easier for me. Thanks
for your patience during the transition.

Thanks again, and remember to help support this list by visiting the masq
web page at http://www.indyramp.com/masq/ when you can.
