Re: Help with mailing list configuration
I got the humor in your post alright, but we had a wise slogan in the old country; HUMOR always includes more than half of serious basis, so I responded to THAT part.

Thanks John, I appreciate your willingness to help. However, my email was a mild (and perhaps altogether ineffective) attempt at humor poking fun at the amount list traffic devoted to unproductive arguing on certain topics. No worries.

Re: Help with mailing list configuration
Jonathan, I am not the one helping you: I am a computer illitterate and use the Internet (since 1988) on a "trial and error" basis. On another list (MindBrain) the posts came in a compact format: first the titles with authors, then the "texts" - including all existing preliminaries - not only out of handling possibilities, but also too long resulting a frequent "truncation" where one would have liked to read on. I asked the moderator to restrict the posts to the preliminaries IMMEDIATELYY addressed in the post - what he did. Now the posts are shorter and ready to be read in full. Maybe you could ask professor Wei Dai... (he showed much civility in the past when members had difficulties using his list).

Help with mailing list configuration
I have a filter set in my mail software such that any Everything List thread that has more than 20% of the comments by Craig Weinberg gets put into a special folder. I find this helps me to prioritize my reading. It's really working well! But something must be wrong, as I haven't seen any other threads come through in a long time. Someone please help me debug my settings. Johnathan Corgan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
