When you go into your Held Messages. Click on the gateway post. A separate window shows the contents. In the Attachments you'll see "attachment.html". Click on that to download into your browser and you'll see the actual gatewayed board post. Rick B On Mon, Sep 10, 2018 at 11:26 AM P. S. & C. A.

PSW, Good question PSW, but I bet you won't get much of an answer to it though, including a legitimate reason for supposedly doing away with the gateway in the first place other than "because we say so.". ☹ The gateway was a good feature, and taking it away is NOT going to be helpful to convince those of us who liked it to stay with slowly dying lists.

David, My goodness. The reason is that we do not duplicate content between sites. It is the same reason we don't pull content from usenet boards. I believe this discussion has been had before. If I post something on a message board and want to change it or delete it, I can do that. But what if it is pushed out to a mailing list I know nothing about? If someone wants content in both places, they can post to both places. This is our current policy and I think it is reasonable and it will remain. Anne On Mon, Sep 10, 2018 at 11:06 AM David E.
