Hi Robby.
I keep up with the reflector via the following method.
* I subscribe to the reflector in Digest Mode (I have MS Outlook for
email).
* I create a rule to send Digest postings to Deleted Items
* I read the reflector posts via my Web Browser at
http://mailman.qth.net/pipermail/elecraft/2010-January/date.html
* I keep a Shortcut on my desktop for that address
* When I start my computer each day, I click that icon and open a
tab in my browser
with that address
* I scan the list of email topics and click on those I want to read
* The browser opens that posting in the brower
* Browser Back returns to the main page
* The browser leaves read postings 'marked as read' by changing its
color
* That page is open in its own tab all day for me
* Refreshing the browser page/tab updates the page
* I usually click on the last posting in the list to highlight it
so as to know where to pick up next time I look at it.
Notes: The Icon/page address must be updated monthly.
Deleting cookies will cause one to lose the 'marked as read'
indications
I suppose the subscribing to the Digest is optional but by being a
subscriber
I can then post to the refelector.
Some postings veiwed via this method do not incorporate 'word
wrap.' If I
really want to read such an email (if lengthy) I copy it
into
Note pad where it word wraps nicely.
...works for me and a whole lot less grief.
