Hi Chris As Louise said, if you are on the list you will get posts to the board and the list. Sometimes there are more posts sent to the list itself and other times there are more via the board. Having the board and list mirrored means people on the list also see the message board posts. Regards, Alex List & Board Admin fabiochris wrote: > I recently joined the Ayr mailing list because I saw my message board query was sent to the mailing list but recently I am seeing now that the only emails I receive from the mailing list are those that are first put on the Ayr message board.
