Anyone know who I can talk to?

Dennis, As you've already found out, the most important thing when dealing with a situation like this is to mail the list itself with a test message. If the first one doesn't come through, it's considered quite acceptable to send a couple of others, just to test out various mods at your end. Don't worry that your junk is going to end up in five thousand peoples' mailboxes. They won't mind - after all, your subscription to the mailing list is really important, and they all realise this! Real NANOG m/l subscribers don't bother with search engines to find out how to deal with problems like this. This is because it's much faster and more efficient to mail the list with a request for help. Forget the fact that NANOG uses standard mailman conventions. Other mailing list subscribers will fall over themselves in the rush to help users like you who are having email trouble because of issues unrelated to the mailing list. But you've done this too! Congrats, you're one heck of a power user! Now that you've taken the two most important steps towards getting your issues dealt with, the next step is to wait for other people to diagnose and hopefully fix your problem for free. Remember that this is the internet and everything is free on the internet, including expert consultancy on mail problems and most importantly, peoples' time. And as before, if it doesn't get fixed soon, just remember to send a couple more emails to the list to embarrass the list administrators into finally fixing your problems. This is a sure-fire way of getting the problem dealt with in a timely manner. hope this helps, Nick

If you can't see posts to the list or responses, why would you go to the list for help? P Go Green! Print this email only when necessary. Thank you for helping Time Warner Cable be environmentally responsible. -----Original Message----- From: Dennis Dayman [mailto:dennis@thenose.net] Sent: Thursday, January 08, 2009 5:48 PM To: Nanog Subject: List Help So I apologize for that test, but I can no longer see posts to the list.
