Hi,
While I can understand some people's wishes to continue on the blacksheep
server, those should understand that the move to Yahoo is not because email
servers are suddenly outdated and not 'en vogue' any longer. There are reasons
behind this transition. Some (many?) of us had trouble to post in the past
couple of months and were on 'read only' mode due to some issues with the
server. I had tried multiple times to post here and, due to the lack of time, I
had to give up. Only recently I found a workaround by using a completely
different email account. I am glad that with the Yahoo Group I can return to
read and hopefully post on a regular basis, making use of the LF/MF's community
joint intelligence and experience.
Talking about advertisements and spam: the email address that I used only for
the LF-reflector has been swamped in the past years by mails from people from
foreign countries offering a lot of money if I assist them to transfer money of
numerous people who suddenly and sadly passed away. I am glad to get rid of
those spams as well now and gladly take into account some advertisements on the
Yahoo group.
