Again, thanks for doing this. Personally, I would like to switch to another list provider, like Google or Yahoo. For some reason, most anyone using a BrailleNote, as I am, will have the first character in their subject line cut off when sending a message to any Freelist group, which is why my subjects often seem strange. No other list provider seems to do this, plus I have heard bad things about Freelists from other people as well.
Have a great day, Alex

Hello Everyone,
OK, sit back and take a deep breath.
As usual, Freelists support has been shall I say not very
helpful.
Apparently, all three accounts that I have moderated messagesgoing to are not working (one gmail, one personal domain and one university account). Also, Freelists support states that the messages can not be resent.
For this reason, messages sent earlier today will not be seen by
the list and for that I am very very sorry.
So, here is what I have done.
I have un-moderated the list for the time being. I will keep avery very close eye on things for the next while and if I see anyone going off topic and ranting or slamming others on the list you will be sent an email and asked to stop. If you refuse then you will be removed from the list and not allowed to post.
I would also like to ask members of the list what they wouldthink of moving the list away from Freelists to Googlegroups where I have had a lot better luck in list control and actually things working. What do all of you think?
Again, my most sincerest apologies.
Jeff Bishop
