Re: OT Mail list restrictions

To clarify; there used to be (on the PDML.net homepage featuring a cap) a link 
to donate that led you to a page that allowed credit card donations without 
using a PP account.  I can only donate that way.  Even if Doug was willing to 
pass on his bank details, the costs of an international transfer would be 
(probably) as much as the donation.

I'm happy to donate if I can use my card via Paypal.  I can't open a PP account.

The first suggestion is that you let us know how to send you money.  These days 
there is paypal, zelle, venmo, and I hear that checks sent in the mail stil 
work.  

I've run my own server, I've run lists, I entirely appreciate everything that 
you're doing.

Doug, 

My last PDML donation was on January 29, 2022, which means it's about time to 
do another donation for the coffers. Please send the appropriate PayPal link to 
send a donation to. 

thanks!

Hi, Larry.

Sorry for the slow response. I have been migrating to a new computer and 
have just today gotten my email client set up, with all that entails.


Loosening the size restrictions might be possible, but not if there is a 
significant cost increase. We ran out of money in the pdml account many 
months ago, and since I haven't identified a method for donation that 
works for more than a few people I have given up begging and just been 
eating the bill. I don't know that I'm willing to subsidize more than I 
have, and allowing larger message sizes/photos on the list would require 
more storage space that has to be paid for.


I am, however, willing to listen to reasonable suggestions, as always.
