Some Improvements for our email subscribers

Marc Martin
Administrator
Hi all,

I just made two changes to benefit those who are subscribing to "ES Forum"
via e-mail:

  1) subject tags -- now there should be a "[ES Forum]" included in the subject line

  2) when you send an email to the forum, the forum should now send you back
      a copy of your email (it doesn't do that by default)

The only issue I see remaining are the daily digests, which only provide the
first line or two of each message with a link to the forum for the full message.
While I'm reluctant to change this to include the complete text of each message,
I am willing to increase the length of the summary if that would be helpful.

Marc

Hi Marc,
Thank you, thank you for the subject tag - lack of that was really
bugging me.
And knowing via email that my post posted will be quite helpful also.
I can't make very many posts as the more time with hands on keyboard and
mouse the more I suffer.
I'm in a very bad state right now because of too much computer time.
I can read a lot without too much misery.
Karen

Yes, me too.  :-)  Fortunately the forum provider (Nabble) provides
some level of customization.  

Also, I just learned that if one wants to create a new "Topic" on the forum
by email, all you need to do is reply to a previous email and change the
subject line.

Sorry to hear that... especially since this forum is supposed to help such
problems.  :-(

I wonder why I still don't have the Individual or Daily digest available to me. I see the subscribe to email but that''s all the choice I get.

So when you click on "Subscribe via email", you don't get taken
to a new page with the individual/digest options?  Do you have a
second web browser that you could try that with?
