Ok, everyone just got an announcement about some of your list options
being changed.

Yes, I did it. Why is very technical, but it has to do with some
software changes and other defaults that needed to be changed.

Essentially, what it means in practical terms, is that you will get all
of your postings mailed to you, where the old was default was that you
wouldn't. Also, if you had it set up to send you an acknowledgement (a
short message saying your message was received), that no longer happens,
with getting your message back being your ack.

Questions? Just ask.

Thanks for the explanation, I'd been wondering if my new site was
screwing up my posts or something...
About the REPRO, though, I'd think a lot of people will get
annoyed by it. Do you mind if I, for one, change it back, or will that
screw up some grand scheme to better humanity? =^>

You can change it back. Default is now for repro, and 99% of people want
that, if you don't want to know if your stuff goes through, then SET
LISTNAME NOREPRO
