From: Bert Creighton Subject: (elongates) [EC_Discussion] Welcome To The New List Date: 30 Sep 1998 14:36:41 -0700 Welcome to the new list! I have moved everyone over that I knew about. You all are getting each message at this point, and not the Digest. If you would like the Digest version: 1) Send an email to: macjordomo@solution.fgm.com 2) Place "SET Elongated_Coins DIGEST" in the BODY of the message (without the quotes) 3) You don't need any information in the TITLE of the message. 4) If you have any problems, check to see if you have a signature block (you know, where your email program appends your name, address, etc at the bottom of your emails) and remove it. I have concealed all your addresses and double checked this. This means if you send a REVIEW command to the Elongated_Coins list, it will NOT report anyone's email address or name. You can change this if you want. I will include the commands you can send to the server below, so you can check them out. This is a free service, done in my off hours. If something goes wrong, please document it and send the information to me at creightoniii@home.com. I will do everything possible to assist. I want to thank Ben, Melinda, Bob and Nancy for their testing (and putting up with my spam test messages). Their efforts helped us get the list running! We will have some tuning to do over the next few weeks, so stick with me as I refine everything. The current Digest size is 16K, meaning when 16K of messages come in, the next Digest goes out. There's a bug in the Once-Per-Day Digest, so that is not available at this time. We may increase the Digest size if we see to many messages coming out. I am on a Macjordomo Mailing List now, and staying current on bugs, fixs, upgrades, etc. More than you probably wanted to know. I'll sign off and let you all test this out. Please put the new email address into your Address Books, and use the new list. I will be away from the server next week, but don't expect any problems. See you online! Bert (Please DON'T reply to the address I am sending this from, use creightoniii@home.com if you need to reply offline from the List - Thanks!) -------------- Where ever you see "List_Name" below, use Elongated_Coins The currently accepted commands are the following and all must appear in the *BODY* of the message.

There are a few email addresses which are no longer valid and I am getting SPAM bouncing back from their postmasters. I hope you all are not getting these too! I will fix the old addresses tomorrow. Here's a new Canadian Report, just in from a friend online: The Queen of Surrey Ferry, which travels the Sunshine Coast has a machine and the Queen of New Westminister which runs between Vancouver and Nanaimo has a machine. I will have samples to scan in soon. That's it for now!
