[WebDNA] Mailing list failure !!!
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2019
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 114909
interpreted = N
texte = 2537 The only mailing list post I ever received from Richard Kwasniewski recently was his first post in the thread entitled "Passing a text variable via copyfile". All his posts after that first post were never sent to me. At first I thought he posted his original question and then just disappeared, leaving the rest of us to discuss his situation amongst ourselves, with no follow-up input from him ... :( But it turns out that the talk list server was not sending me his posts. I learned this by viewing the website mailing list archives and also looking for his follow-up posts in my gmail account. They are in the archives but NOT in my account. I seem to remember this happening before, and I think it happened with Richard the last time, too. Could there be an issue with his email address or with something else in his talk list subscription? Did anyone else fail to receive his follow-up posts in his thread? If anyone else failed to receive his follow-up posts (or his first post) it might make sense to delete his subscription to the talk list, and then have him subscribe again. This should clear any underlying issues or glitches in his current subscription. Anyone?
