Thanks Tony. Contrary to what a few people apparently think,
maintaining this list does not pay my mortgage, nor is it my fulltime job.
Quite a lot of this list is now self-service, but you have to pay
attention, and read the applicable instructions. I don't think that's
too much to ask. If you want full-service, you better be prepared to tip
really generously.
I believe I mentioned that we switched list software versions, a few
days after the "big switch". This had the unfortunate side-effect of
switching everyone back to MIME from plain text. Equally unfortunately,
there's no way for me change that across the board. I may, eventually,
get around to changing all 2,000 subscriptions manually, but I'm sure you
can imagine how likely that is.
If you don't want MIME, log into the administration interface at;
http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/slowhand
and change it. Note that this URL may change from time-to-time, but it
is always specified in the most recent Digest.
If, for some reason, you can't figure out how to do that, unsubscribe,
and re-subscribe, and you should automagically get plain text Digests.
