[Healeys] Off-topic: The List

[Richard Collins]

I have been on it for a few years and am taken off for no apparent reason every few months. This last episode took me off for about  3 months and mysteriously I just started getting eMails from  list again about a week ago. 
Not a big deal as running these lists is a thankless job. This is one of the best however!!!

That all stopped for me when Mark did one of his upgrades several years ago, and now for the most part everything pops up quickly and in order (for me at least).  I have used roadrunner email since before I started participating on the list, it uses a POP3 server (I don't really know what that means other than I know Microsoft keeps making it harder and harder to use POP3 email with each new software iteration) using Windows Live Mail as my email client.

I do get an acknowledgment that I've made a post, which always goes direct to my spam folder.  Sometimes, I'll go to the archive to see if the post has made it through.  Don't know a solution unless it's to go back to AOL.  If it's good enough for EditorGary and the head of the CIA, who am I to quibble?

>> Unlike in the past, my emails from the List--including bounces of my sent emails--are coming in slowly, sporadically, and out of order.  This makes following a thread much more difficult; e.g. I often see replies to my posts before I receive my own post (probably because they're from people hitting 'Reply All' and sending directly to me).
