yes, I agree. Yahoo groups has become very efficient now, and the option of being able to download a digest, look at all in one go or have individual ones forwarded is invaluable in allowing the wheat and chaff in teh Haggis to be sorted

Let me make my suggestion made a month or so back again: form A Yahoo group called "LF_Reflector". Apart from (some occasional) delays in post, which in my experience are very rare, these are the advantages:
- messages accessible via the web page if req (avoids mailboxes) or by email
- messages can be sent in daily digests if preferred
- 100GB of available files and photos storage
- multiple moderators to keep out spam possible, with different degrees of privilages
- all archived messages readable on the web for ever
- useful links page
- databases (useful to show who is active, when etc)
- calendars (post reminders of 8.97kHz tests etc)
- polls ( check opinions on issues, ideas)
.....etc
Being a member of several Yahoo groups and moderator of two I can say that they work well, 99% of the time with no hassle. By comparison this reflector does seem very "1990s technology". I do take the point about instant access, but in my experience of GQRP Yahoo group access time to get a new post visible is rarely longer than 2 minutes.
And it is free.

I am not the list-owner but I often pick up these queries on his behalf. We
have had this problem before and it is nothing to do with the RSGB list. The
problem lies in aggressive spam blocking of one of the intermediate nodes or
even the blacksheep service provider. I am afraid in the past we have had
little success clearing this problem. I suggest Daniele starts with his own
service provider and askeds them why they are not able to deliver. Certain
addresses have been tagged as transporters of significant volumes of spam
and many of these are now blacklisted out of hand. It is an easy solution
for the ISP. If you (Daniele) had been having trouble with the blacksheep
system you would not have had a fail message........blacksheep just dumps
messages it doesnt like and does not send responses to avoid the "ping-pong"
effect. If Daniele has another mail address I suggest he tried that to see
if that will get through. He will not be able to unsubscribe his alice.it
address from any other address, and it may mean he will get two copies of
every posting. If he genuinely wants to unsubscribe an address he should
amil me directly and I will passon a reqyest for the owner to do it.
Sorry for the problems

Dear LF administrators,
Daniele sent me this mail since he has problems (see below). Could anybody
from the administrators help him? I think i do not have the authority to
unsubscribe him ;-)

Betreff: Problems with RSGB LF reflector
Hello Stefan,
my apologies for bothering you with this issue.
Currently I'm not able anymore to send messages to the RSGB LF reflector.
I always get errors from my e-mail provider saying that "the recipient's
destination email system is unknown or invalid".
For the same reason I cannot unsubscribe neither I can try to re-subscribe.
Could you kindly try to unsubscribe [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]> on my behalf?
Then I would try to subscribe from a different address.
Many thanks
Daniele
