  Have the admins gone AWOL?
 
I'm getting concerned about the lack of response from anyone official regarding the open mail relay issue. Add to this the lack of updates to the database from recent requests (I supplied full info for a new set weeks ago, with offers of box scans (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  How does a new group get established?
 
Not certain if admin.general and .faq are right for this, so feel free to FUT somewhere if you deem it better. The participants in the Starship RPG have mentioned possibly estabishling a Lugnet newsgroup for our discussions. The message boards we (...)

(...) For the one auction a blue moon, I wouldn't worry about where the updates go. I'd much rather see a separate place for eBay auctions so that I can see the personally run auction when a blue moon occurs. Frank (22 years ago, 23-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Unsorted lot of over 5800 pcs.
 
(...) Personally, I think the standards have changed for auctions-- it used to be (in pre-ebay pre-bricklink days) that people would hold auctions themselves and bash newsgroups with repeated auction updates. I think this continuous post beating is (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Can postings that had their e-mail authentication blocked stil be retrieved?
 
On the main point - new e-mails can be kicked off. I think Dan Boger is able to do this. (...) This really sucks. Fortunately my ISP isn't blocking Lugnet.

(...) That's likely to get the needed change done sooner than looking to Suz for the work, I suspect. She's acknowledged the need for change and asked for help already.

  Re: Unsorted lot of over 5800 pcs.
 
(...) I agree that there should be a discussion area for brickshops (even though BrickLink has its own forums). I would personally like to see a separate place for BrickLink adds though. I tend to skim them, and I'd love for it to be easy to find (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I also agree with Frank almost completely except for Larry's exception which I agree is correct. But, like Frank has stated many times, simply agreeing won't get us anywhere. Some fixes are in order. I guess since I hold the role of curator (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Can postings that had their e-mail authentication blocked stil be retrieved?
 
I have made sereval unsuccesfull postings to Lugnet, as it later turned out to be this was during the time that Lugnet was listed as Open relay at ORDB.org, and my provider blocked the e-mail notification messages. As a consequence, my messages are (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: Lugnet listed as Open relay at ORDB.org?
 
I am surprised. I thought this was big enough to post it, and expected a pretty quick response form the system admins here. Have any of the administrators noticed this? Is it being worked on? I believe that this is more important than just some (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
