Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2000 13:59:00 +0100 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.0.1461.28) From: A Rosta Dear Lex, I have in fact set up an alternative at the main UK host for academic lists, but the decision to move the list there is properly Lojbab's, acting on behalf of LLG and the Lojban community. I think he's still considering whether to go ahead with the move. [The new list currently wouldn't put '[lojban]' in the subject line, which is a minus, though of course not as big a minus as it filling the top half of my email pane with advertisements Certainly a move without consultation would piss some people off, even if they didn't have to handle their own resubscription. --And. ---------- > From: Lex Spoon > To: lojban@egroups.com > Subject: Re: [lojban] leave egr-oups? > Date: 19 September 2000 23:47 > > > A Rosta wrote: > > > I've missed some months of Lojban list & return to find > > that the eGroups sponsorship message is now at the *top* > > of messages and is 100, nay 1000, times more annoying. > > Does anybody know how to get rid of them?
