Hi All,
I am a blind computer user that runs a web site for visually impaired
programmers, BlindProgramming.com . I moved it from Earthlink to a new
host, and the new hose uses MailMan.
I have two lists set up; programming at BlindProgramming.com (450+- members,
for discussing programming-related issues), and
JawsScripts at BlindProgramming.com (620+- members, which discusses the use of
the adaptive screen reading package most of us use to access Windows.)
I have a couple of issues that I cannot locate the answers to easily, and
was wondering if one of you MailMan gurus could make suggestions?
1. When someone replies to a message sent to the list, it puts 3 addresses
in the To: field; brown99 at BlindProgramming.com (my address);
programming at BlindProgramming.com ; and "A list for discussing programming by
the blind in a visually oriented profession".
It puts my address, the list address, and the one-line description of the
list!
Now, the settings in the General... section for replies has 3 settings;
poster, list, and explicit address. I have this set to "list." Why won't
it just send to the list, and not those others?
2. In Content filtering..., I have it set to "yes", and I still (according
to the screen reading software) get the attachment icon, but no attachment!
I want no attachments at all, and HTML converted to text, which I thought
just setting the filtering option to Yes would do. Why do the members still
get the attachment icon as if there is an attachment attached?
I appreciate all suggestions!
Thanks,
Dennis Brown "Visually impaired as a bat!"
