Rajko,
Thank you for your explanation. I now understand 2 things. I know what top
posting is and I have a better understanding of the ISO format. I think
you have helped me in both areas. I also think I need to unsubscribe from
this list and subscribe to another one that is better for someone with my
knowledge and experience. Can you suggest which group would be best for me
to find answers in?
Thanks,
There is also no simple answer to newcomer.
First you will be better off with Thunderbird. Look at
http://www.mozilla.org
I use it even for windows as it has spam filtering built in, and many
other features that prevent spammers to get your email address.
Second when you reply remove signature including "-- " because most good
mail software doesn't quote signature. The above is manual "cut" and
"paste as a quote" as it wasn't quoted automatically.
Third if you really have toyota.com mail address than use it, otherwise
find something else that for sure is not in use. Mail program looks for
character @ to declare mail address valid. So [EMAIL PROTECTED] is
valid for program, and no mail server in the world will complain about
invalid address.
Now to the question.
You may use [email protected], but be patient, enable threading that
will group messages, and be prepared for a lot of mails every day. Other
than that you can look for web forums. The openSUSE has none right now,
but they consider the idea.
For the beginner is probably better to use usenet (newsgroups).
Thunderbird can do that too. Look with your provider what is the name of
news server. It is usually your Internet provider domain with news or
nntp instead of www, like:
news.<internet provider domain>.com
nntp.<internet provider domain>.com
On your provider news server you can look for alt.os.linux.suse .
Independent from your provider you can set up
news://support-forums.novell.com
as news server and browse the list that you get when click on subscribe
to find those with opensuse in the name.
BTW, thanks for you posts, as they gave me idea what articles are
missing on opensuse.org.
