Thank you vera, vera mush Mr. Lombard sir for providing us with the RTF
list. Personally, I have forsaken all other lists but this one.
Ok, enough sucking up. I'll ask around Dothan with Graceba, Veriquick and
Cyber-South to see what they have to offer.

Subject: [RollTideFan] ADMIN Notice For RollTideFan
I've read the whining about the server. I've spent an assload of money on
different servers only to be kicked off without notice or reason (without a
refund), have shitty server performance, have my bandwidth requirements
throttled without notice, etc...
The list needs to reside on a server that uses CPanel software for domain
and
file maintenance because that is the format that we've always used. This
includes MailMan mail & list software. All of out files are compatible with
this
format only.The server also has to allow lists to be created which, believe
it
or not, not all do. Some ignorant serve admins are so stupid that they set
up
the software wrong and get hammered by e-mails once a list is used. They
think I
am a spammer and jack me with no conversation. If the software is set up
correctly there are none of those issues.
What I am saying it that I have always tried to use the best server
available
within our requirements and financial limitations. Some are better than
others.
Now, since the vast, vast majority of people on this list only lurk (you
suck!)
then i can't see any reason we can't allow pictures to be posted. We need
only
GIF & JPEG/JPG images and NO MOVIES (of ANY kind) or WAV/sound files until
we
see how this will work on out bandwidth.
As for HTML, knock your socks off until we see how it uses bandwidth.
I've asked for this before with almost no response, but here goes: If you
want a
more reliable server then find it. Use the requirements listed above plus it
needs to be a UNIX server. Let us know what you find. Also, if you want to
see
the message board resurrected, please volunteer to be the admin.
Mike
