RE: ADMIN: Another mailing list suggestion
I have been trying to automatically process incoming posts from this
mailing list, as well. Due to the way in which my gateway/mail software
(MS Exchange) works, I continue to grow my list of possible 'To'
addresses that could be used for this list. Unfortunately, I think that
I am seeing any aliases people have defined for this list.
After two weeks, I have accumulated the following list of addresses:
tp750@cs.utk.edu
Thinkpad@cs.utk.edu
"Thinkpad List"
tp750
"ThinkPad mailing list"
thinkpad
Using this list, I have been able to catch all posts on this list in the
last five days or so. However, I expect it will have to grow. I think it
would be great if posts from this list came through with a single 'To'
address, but I haven't looked into it enough to confirm that the problem
isn't somewhere at my end of the food chain.
