  Re: a thought about brickbay update postings
 
(...) Not everyone uses the same newsreader that you do. The filtering capabilities of various programs varies a lot, and the web interface has no such filters, AFAIK. Amy (23 years ago, 19-Apr-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

  Posting via mail
 
(...) It is possible to post via the mailing list version -- there's a two-way SMTP<=>NNTP gateway. However, this only works if you are subscribed for instant delivery (i.e., not digests). (...)

  Reply-To setting in mailing lists
 
(...) Chris, The quick answer is that the list software you're using is called "ezmlm" (URL). A more complete answer, however, is that you're actually on a pure- mailing-list half of a bidirectional mailing-list-to-newsgroup gateway. That is, some (...)

  REQ: Restructuring loc.de.* newsgroups
 
Hello Todd! I am requesting a restructuring of the loc.de.* newsgroups. The loc.de.* newsgroups are almost not used because if the strange division into separate counties.

  Problem with flags in Pine
 
Over the past few days, in at least two groups (.db.inv and .market.theory), I've noticed that when I leave messages undeleted, but read (that is, not flagged "new" by Pine) and then come back to the group later, they are flagged as "new". This (...) (23 years ago, 30-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

  Re: Help with newsreader IE5.5
 
Bryan's right; it was a user error on my part. I had right-clicked on each news group and selected 'Catch Up', which acted as if I had once downloaded and later deleted all postings. By right-clicking on the newsgroup, selecting 'Properties' and (...) (24 years ago, 29-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

What is the exact protocol of message exchange between these two groups? Based on the nature of some threads, it seems that lugnet.robotics receives the messages from lego-robotics, but not vice-versa. This seems to have, on many occasions, resulted (...)
