Rose, There's still 1 possible solution to the problem. If you read through the instructions below which come from the confirmation message you'll see that there is an alternative to replying to the message. # To subscribe, reply to this message, leaving the message body # intact, or send the following lines in e-mail to # ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx: Copy the lines that follow the instructions in your confirmation message into a new e-mail and send them to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx The lines should look something like this. // job appsub bksvol-discuss rosecombs@xxxxxxxxx <line of garbage that is probably a long confirmation ID> // eoj If you still have problems, then forward the confirmation message to one of us and let us help you send it in. I'd suggest sending it directly to someone though instead of to the group e-mail to prevent multiple people from sending it in for you. Good luck, Gerald -----Original Message----- From: siss52 [mailto:siss52@xxxxxxx] Sent: Saturday, January 29, 2005 10:33 PM To: bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookshare-discuss] Re: test Well, I can certainly understand your frustration,, Rose. I was unsubscribed but got back on without any hitches. I don't know what else to suggest unless you want one of us to forward the conversations to you.

I am slowly beginning to believe that I was not meant to be a volunteer, or at least not to see the conversations among them. This message was a text message, and normally I am set to reply in text. Since I did not type one single character in the reply, and since my signature did not show up on that reply anywhere, and it is the message I an supposed to reply to, and it still does not work, I am not sure what to do now. This will be the fifth time I have sent a request message and gone through this routine in three weeks. I don't think I am willing to try again unless I hear some changes have been made so that the reply actually does work. -----Original Message----- From: siss52 [mailto:siss52@xxxxxxx] Sent: Saturday, January 29, 2005 12:20 AM To: bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookshare-discuss] Re: test Hey! You may have hit on something here. I wonder if Rose Combs has hers set to reply in the format they were sent. So did you make it on to the bksvol list as well? I have mine set on HTML or I can choose plain text.. Anyway that's terrific!!

I succeeded on the first try. I had to turn include reply on, and I don't know if it matters, but I have html on instead of plain text. It's also set up to reply to messages in the form they were sent. Kellie
