  Unsubscribe from Lugnet-by-email
 
Hi, I'm currently subscribed to receive several lugnet.cad groups by e-mail. Works a treat and I get lots of mail. However, I now want to unsubscribe (and continue reading by NNTP). When I go to (URL) and enter my email and confirmation code the (...) (20 years ago, 29-Jun-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Link syntax problem in news readers
 
(...) I whined about this format when the standard first appeared. My concern was that I'd seen lots of emails/postings/etc. that enclosed a URL in angle brackets, and this format doesn't follow that convention. Instead, the presentation software (...)

(...) I uploaded a screenshot of the message to Brickshelf: (URL) you can see, everything between the < > is being read as the url. The link shows up as "(URL) in my browser. -- Thomas Main thomasmain@myrealbox.com (20 years ago, 28-Jun-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Link syntax problem in news readers
 
I have problems everyday with clickable items in my newsreader for NNTP (Outlook Express 6). If the people who post their MOC's link would put a space between the link and the thumbnail, it would solve 1 problem. On a seperate note, Lar, the "raw" (...)

  Re: Link syntax problem in news readers
 
(...) That one works fine for me in IE6. I don't recall anyone posting screenshots as Todd suggested in the thread you referenced, so perhaps it fell off Todd's radar? The underlying HTML (that I see via View Source from web view) is as follows: (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jun-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Link syntax problem in news readers
 
Is the problem of FTX formatted links not working properly in news readers still being worked on? I found this post about it from last year: (URL) am still having to edit urls in my web browser after clicking on them from my news reader and have (...)

  Re: Who made this?
 
(...) Yup, I just noticed it. Thanks for the heads up, though. Thing is, the confirmation e-mail took a while to reach me, and I then took a while to answer. I'm afraid I didn't check new posts in the meanwhile, sorry. I've noticed some of my (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jun-04, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: Intermittent problem: Server error viewing post
 
(...) I opened the hood and found that Perl was segfaulting when generating a couple of the webpages reported. I switched the shebang line to another version of Perl and that seems to have cleared it up. Segfaults in Perl are spooky. --Todd (20 years ago, 23-Jun-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Intermittent problem: Server error viewing post
 
(...) I can view them all in my newsreader, and don't seem to be having any trouble posting, so I'm guessing it's only affecting the web viewer. But I could be wrong. ROSCO (20 years ago, 23-Jun-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Weird - I can view this message, and Kyle's (URL) and a couple of others on peerons ticker. Doesn't seem to be related to whether or not I've previously viewed them or anything else I can figure. ROSCO (20 years ago, 23-Jun-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Intermittent problem: Server error viewing post
 
Various users are noticing various intermittent problems trying to view posts. I dunno if this one will even make it out there or not. People may not want to post long things that took a lot of work to compose, unless they have them saved away, till (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jun-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Posting Help Needed
 
First off, I'm not sure if this is in the right newsgroup, if it is not, I'm sorry. I'm not a LugNet member, but I do have posting priviledges, and do post occasionaly. I recently got a new e-mail address, and would like to know how to change the (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jun-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: i decided to
 
(...) This is, in my considered opinion, *off topic* for the off-topic.debate newsgroup as it has to do with the norms and standards of LUGNET itself. If you have an issue with the approach Tim, or anyone else, uses to try to improve things on (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jun-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.general)
