Subject: [elky] Admin: addresses and file size
I've seen numerous notifications of bounced posts because of non-subscribed
email addresses and file sizes that are over the list's limit (500kb).
Here's the deal: If you have multiple email addresses, you can only post to
the list with the one you subscribed with. It's possible to add a second or
third address, but then you'll get 2 or 3 copies of each and every post. I
have numerous email accounts, so I have to be careful when composing a post
to the list to ensure that it's sent from the proper one, otherwise, the
post goes of into the great bit bucket in the sky and I get an email telling
me about it. So if you've posted to the list and your post didn't show up,
this is probably why.
I've also seen bounces because a message is too large. I set the max
message size to 500k, which is big enough for most posts. Generally, the
bounces are those that have a video clip or original, unedited photo
attached to them. I recommend not doing this. If you have a video you'd
like others to see, put it on youtube and post the link. If you've taken a
photo and want to attach it, edit it to reduce its size before posting.
Another suggestion: when you're replying to a previous post that has
embedded images, remove those that you're not specifically addressing in
your reply. This helps conserve bandwidth and makes life easier for those
on slow connections.
Just a coupla suggestions to help ensure that your posts to the lists get
there.
