[C320-list] Posting to the list

[Colin Evans]

The suggestion that it be run like a normal forum was raised by Simon Rock a
few months ago, but the decision (by those that run the web site etc) was
made to keep it as is.

If you "reply to all" then whoever sent the last email to you will get an
extra copy of yours ( I think)and no new topic is generated.  Maybe cut the
320 address from the properties and paste it into the "To" address line.

I must admit that I have only started a few topics but I get a lot of useful
information from the system.  There are many 320 owners that know a lot more
about the boats than I do and I am prepared to tap into their knowledge for
as long as they are willing to allow.

I Reply To All and erase the previous messages then change the Subject.
 
I have trouble with the site as well so don't feel alone. I must be doing
something wrong on the site since I'm not too successful at finding
subjects...such as shaft alignment. Then I ask on the email list and get
directed to the site. Why can't this be run like a normal forum? I love the
idea of a site for 320 owners. I guess I need more practice at this because
so far I haven't been too successful at making this site work for me. I'd
use it more if I got more from it.
 
I have also sent a few notices the last few weeks on our name change in the
Hull Number Roster with no effect.

Not sure why it doesn`t work.
But if you change the subject for an existing topic then those that only get
the "digest" daily will suddenly have a change of discussion under the
original topic. So maybe it`s not a wise thing to do.

I've tried a couple of times recently to post an original question, but the
list seems to simply reject me without comment. Neither the C320-list
acknowledgement nor the post ever show up in my Inbox (although they do show
up in my Sent Mail), unless I reply to someone else's post and change the
subject line. Am I overlooking something?

Thanks,
