Problem with (and, specially, without) Brin: [was: On the Housing Market]

2009-02-26 Thread Alberto Monteiro
David Brin complained:
 
 Alas, both versions came through.  Nick, have we run out of
 solutions here? 

May I offer a suggestion?

* Set the standard David Brin account to receive no mails

* Create (someone else could do it) a dummy account, like
  david.brin.k...@somewhere, run by a 'bot, and subscribe it
  to the list

* The 'bot has the primary purpose of forwarding to the standard David
  Brin account every message whose subject includes the string Brin:

* The 'bot has the secondary purpose of forwarding to the list every
  message it receives from the main David Brin account

I have to agree with Alberto.  Some other solution is needed, since I am 
getting all subject lines, all the time...

And you're getting this at the email address below?  That's what shows up in
the headers as the actual address to which the email was sent?
I'm really sorry about this... it was working perfectly before the move and
I can't see any reason it shouldn't now.

On the other hand, if you don't reply to this message, I'll know that Julia
figured it out.

Hi Nick.

I am reading this at db...@sbcglobal.net

But that address gets pass-thru from two other addresses:  
b...@alumni.caltech.edu  and b...@cts.com(I doubt those are listed on 
Brin-L but you might check.

Thanks for plowing through this.

david
