[gentoo-user] Is the mailing list working?

[Dale]

Hi,

I emailed this list quite a while ago about not getting emails from the 
list or any other Gentoo list.  I wrote the very VERY slow to respond 
AT&T crew about unblocking the emails.  This was on about May 16 or so. 
  Well, a little while ago I got my first set of emails.  Whoooooooo 
Ooooooooooo.  I have so missed getting my emails and keeping up with 
where Gentoo is going and what issues have cropped up with updates.

Now, I am just hoping to get this email back and confirm that all is 
working again.  Oh, filed a complaint with the FCC about not having DSL 
too.  Sort of putting a fire under AT&T.  ;-)  24K dial-up sucks, BIG 
time.  Picture downloading OOo, VERRRRRRRYYYYY 
ssssslllllloooooowwwwwllllllyyyyyy.  :-D

Glad to be back.

Dale

Yep, that was what they was telling me.  Sort of letting the FCC get the 
info from now on.  See what story they get.  They did install the DSL 
box  up the road tho.  They are doing something, just not sure what that 
something is exactly.

At least they got my emails coming in again.  LOL

I've one word of advice for you:  gmane

  http://gmane.org/about.php

IMO, gmane is really the only civilized way to read mailing
lists.  Pointing a good newsreader (I like slrn) at
news.gmane.org allows one to follow mailing lists with far less
effort/hassle -- and you never have to worry about mailboxes
filling up.

You also ought to switch to an ISP that doesn't suck, but
that's a different issue. ;)

Well, since I am on dial-up, I prefer to read most of my stuff offline.  
It's easier for me at least.  I did try to mess with gmane but never 
could figure out how to make it work.  Sort of gave up on it.

Right now, I'm planning to switch ISPs if DSL doesn't come soon.  I'm 
paying ~$24.00 for dial-up but DSL would be only ~$20.00 and DSL is 
faster.  Go figure out how backward that is.  I mentioned that to the 
FCC too.
