Well Ken, I have replied to several questions that never showed up in the list. So, I sent this to test. This is the first out of 5 that showed up. What part of "do not reply" don't you understand.

Ken is not alone. Your test message would have been better received if instead of "blah blah blah" you would have given your reasons for sending in the first place.

I saw one yesterday (Shareing printers from...).

You have a test list at your service to do just that, testing. And you have this text in the confirmation email email you got when you subscribed: ] Please do not send test messages to the list -- it's annoying and rude. ] Instead, use our test list. Send an email to ] test-list-subscribe@suse.com ] and reply to the confirmation request you will receive (just like you ] did to subscribe to suse-linux-e). To unsubscribe, send an email to ] test-list-unsubscribe@suse.com ] or do nothing...you'll be automatically unsubscribed within 24 hours. ] The list also has a small FAQ explaining the most common posting ] problems. There's no need to subscribe to the test list to see it, ] just email test-list-faq@suse.com. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFEjxWVtTMYHG2NR9URAtA5AJ0cZbIws3/rvS/FLxFTYHcpJfXqqACfa2FY VdwaxmnoXBe+028gYVK9iAY= =vhOP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

No he doesn't. It is VERY annoying. Don't do it. -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

This is part of the suse-linux-e FAQ that can be retrieved by clicking on the last link at the bottom of almost every message on the list... Q7. I receive the list without problems, but whenever I try to post or retrieve the archives my mail bounces with a warning that only subscribers are allowed to post. A7. Most likely your envelope and header From addresses are different. There's nothing necessarily wrong with this (it's quite common on large domains, for example) but it does make things a little more complicated. We use the envelope From for authentication, not the header From. If you don't know what any of this means then email ml-admin@suse.com and ask them to subscribe you. Also, *please* do not send "test" messages to the list. It's very annoying and rude; we have a special list just for this purpose: test-list@suse.com. Send an email to test-list-subscribe@suse.com and read the information you'll receive.

blah blah blah hi Mike, the way to test connections with a live mail-list *without* ruffling everyones neatly pinned feathers is to send a real SuSE question to the list

Then, place a unique searchable keyword in the header like>> A37suse10_1_wasnt_so_hot... then, wait and see if you're test message hits the server... :-)) You'll be able for search for it in your mail list, nobody will complain (except the ones who feel that 10.1 dig) and you might even get some useful info out of it. Another way to test the mail list is to add to the community in the area of SuSE support (anything) and post it to the mail list as though it were a real message... that way you'll get to test the mail server and everyone else will get something out of it too.
