There *may* still be problems at the bbk end with some of the
lists. But problems can arise at *your* end as well. If you have
problesm it's a good idea to be on friendly terms with your postmaster
(technical term - there should be a postmaster@<site> for any site to
which you can send mail.) *Your* postmaster can help you discover
whether the problem is at your end or the other. *I* have problems in
that (I think) my dl.ac.uk address sometimes changes machine names. This
cause problems with listproc which REQUIRES YOU TO POST FROM A PARTICULAR
MACHINE (I think).
It would be GREAT if someone would volunteer to help coordinate
the discussion of e-mail.
I have never used the mailto: facility in HTTP and am not sure
that it is widely implemented. However I think Netscape makes a good job
of it.
I'm cross-posting to GNA-TECH in case they have any suggestions/help.

Subject: Problems posting to the list
Peter, Hello. Congrats on all your great efforts so far.
I'm just now getting oriented.
My problem: I am subscribed to the email lists but I don't
see my post appearing when I try to email to the list myself.
I tried on Friday (27 Jan) and today (Sun 29).
I posted to vsns-pps-general@www.cryst.bbk.ac.uk
Also: the Web pages for the email discussions are not currently
accessible yielding the following error:
ERROR
Requested document (URL mailto:vsns-pps-general@www.cryst.bbk.ac.uk)
could not be accessed.
The information server either is not accessible or is refusing to serve
the document to you.
Barry
