Mailing List Archive: New list address

New list address

Post #1 of 5 (780 views)

I have copied the old list members and archives over to the new list,
and have begun forwarding the old list address
(wikitech-l@nupedia.com) to wikitech-l@wikipedia.org. I beleive that
it is working without problem. Please let me know otherwise. I also
beleive that I copied the membership options correctly, though I'm not
absolutely positive. One thing I expect will be slightly different is
the time that the daily digests are received. I beleive the new
server is set to UTC whereas the old server was on PDT, and I beleive
digests go out at 5:00pm server local time...

Please let me know if you witness any trouble.

I had a second account (vibber@usc.edu) signed up with delivery disabled
so I could send mail to the list from that account when necessary
without having to wait for a moderator approval; I seem to be receiving
via both accounts now.

I'm now going each individual post, rather than the digest as before.

While I'm on the subject, is it possible to get the digest
as a series of attachments, with each attachment an individual post,
as is currently done for <wikipedia-l> but not this list or <intlwiki-l>?
This is much more convenient when replying.

I imported the data in a slightly different way now, this should fix
some problems (I had missed everyone's passwords before). Let me know
if you continue to see this problem, Brion.

This is an option for the digest members (MIME or Plain Text) that is
set to "Plain Text" by default. I can easily set it to MIME by
default if that seems okay to everyone...
