Mike:
Presently, if one is subscribed to multiple CDNUser forums (i.e. PCB
Design and Skill), there is no way of knowing which forum the email is
coming from. This makes it difficult to auto-filter it so it is placed
in the correct folder. There needs to be a way of discriminating email,
like this (and most) forums do: placing identifying text in the subject
line.
Just a suggestion :)

I have had around 5 laser surgeries to my eyes to repair retinopathy,
which tends to make anything smaller than 10 or 11 points extremely
difficult for me to see. I can see the email without problems because I
can set the fonts large enough to see. I have to admit that they have
improved the site from the days when I originally complained. They used
to have gray on white text that was impossible for me to see, at least
it's black on gray, now. It's just unfortunate that they still have to
use 8 or 9 point type.

If bidirectional email were available, I would stick around. The main
issue with me is visibility, followed by ease of use, followed by
content filtering because somebody wants no humor or personality on the
forum. The chemistry here has grown through more than just the propel
on it, it has grown due to the spontaneity of the medium. Without the
immediate response available with email, a lot of that "personality"
will be lost, and a lot of the reason to stick around will be lost, too.
Work is too stressful without the occasional bit of humor.
