    3. Suggest as Anne has advised that you can copy the address in the held post. Rather than reject. Just write the person a simple message explaining the post caught and why and ask them to re post with out using reject. Just a thought.

    3. Sure, you can copy the address and paste it into your e-mail client and then type a message, which will have to be longer because it will have to explain why you're typing it. More time-consuming than being able just to add a line in the 'reject' notification, *and* the poor subscriber gets two messages, one saying his/her post has been rejected and another saying why, instead of just one message. That's untidy and cumbersome. I shall look forward to it being fixed eventually, if I'm spared that long.

    3. I have been going down that track since the lists came back up !! But we should not have to do that, it should not be necessary to jump through hoops when it should be a facility to use As I said, I shall judge each held post on a case by case basis but subscribers need to take responsibility for their actions too Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 18-Apr-18 3:28 PM, Dan M wrote: > Suggest as Anne has advised that you can copy the address in the held > post.

    1. [LO]Re: message reject
    2. DJ
    3. Valorie Over the many years I have always posted to my groups how to use a good subject line. That is noted; so we move on to the ( Hi folks our lists are working) and a flurry of ( me too and I  am here etc)   I already posted that I would not use the reject in a few posts back. How ever, the message was caught, was not good topic, and it looked like a fair time to try a tool I don't use. And don't plan to. How ever, since it needs some fenness maybe it was a good thing and staff folks ( could say ) thanks Dan for brining it up, rather than the put downs.  Sever admins and me talk in private, in part is because every time we post top the list we get or got, some sort of flare and shot down the chute, or in the past, * fly swatted * for even writing to the list any thing ?   As thats a well know topic,, it was why the other lo got started on yahoo and rootsweb other LO list. Its way I stopped posting all together and I guess since my messages and getting that unwelcome feel, maybe I will again stop. Far as good content, I try to keep my posts on some sort of topic like other admins, we ( know) ver 3 is going to be different, we know we can't bring back the past and what we are used to, but we also would like to be heard if we ask a question that seems moot, might be a reason we asked it. Like ( how do  you subscribe some one) on the page it could say ( for all subscribing) or something.   I do read and follow reason. But not excuses.   You want good content? We admins are free help and are only trying to comply to get things going smoothly. We can't responsibly answer members if we don't ask even stupid questions. Mailman 3 is different. Anne does not have it easy, what they are doing is not easy- she said she is having problems and was honest about it pulling from the wrong fields - we all need to give each other some latitude here.   So, folks, it just seems if we all work together, even if things don't seem to happen, chill and tell some one, ( I  changed this, and it had no effect) from there, let the inside people find time to fix it. Some fixing might be global.   I can say, one thing; any one who thinks they can install mailman with out any help go for it.  I looked at my old messages, I been here since fall 1997 I am not against any one, just trying to be a part of the lo family.
