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servers are suddenly outdated and not 'en vogue' any longer.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.
