Hi all
I've gatewayed the Gen Connect Board for Cason to the Cason email discussion list.
What this means in effect is that all messages posted on the board will now also arrive on
the list.
Messages that come from the board to the list will have an extra line or two added that
will look something like the following, as an example:-
Posted on: Cason Query Forum
Board URL:
http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/surnames/c/a/CASON/queries
The only problem is that replying to messages received from the board, particularly if the
person posting the message to the board is not subscribed to the email discussion list
will mean nothing because they won't receive the replies.
It is requested that in such instances, the reply should be posted on the board by
pressing the highlighted blue text above and then entering the reply directly onto the
board. Obviously because the board is gatewayed to the list, your reply will also
automatically be posted to the list.
I know that this changes things slightly when messages are received from the board,
however I believe that all Cason researchers will benefit by this change.
Kindest regards
Mark Barker
Cason List Manager
