I am trying to get on the forum to ask/submit questions, but I cannot. I registered a few days ago, so I am in the system, but every time I try to log it, it says I am not a registered user. How can I get this cleared up? |
There are TWO gateways into the Matronics forums.
One is by way of your browser. You don't need an
email service for this activity. Use of this service
requires a SEPARATE account creation using a unique
user name and password.
The other is by means of an e-mail forwarding service . . .
all messages sent to a particular address are sent
out to all subscribers. No log-on or password
required.
You have checked the subscription boxes for
both individual postings and the daily digest
off ALL postings for the day. I'll suggest you
go back to http://matronics.com/subscribe
and UN-check either the digest or real-time
box. I recommend that you un-check the digest
box.
To ASK a question or start a new thread of discussion
you simply craft an email message and send it to:
aeroelectric-list(at)matronics.com
To respond to any other posting, you simply hit
the REPLY button on your e-mail client. You are
getting this message because you REPLIED to
a posting on another topic. I've changed the
title of the topic so as to 'unhook' our
conversation from the other one.
Your difficulty is probably based on a an
attempt to use the browser based service while
your subscription is for the email service.
You CAN do both. I occasionally use the browser
based service when I'm away from my personal
computers.
When I checked your subscription status a few
days ago, you WERE signed up for a number of
other forums. I see that you are now subscribed
to ONLY the AeroElectric List. Is this your
intention? You may want to go back and re-check
boxes for forums that were useful to you. Again,
I recommend that you check ONLY the real-time
and not the digest service.

Bob,
Wondering why you prefer the real-time emails? I've been using the digest version for years and I like the one-a-day email. Of course, getting the postings is delayed a day whereas the real-time ones are received same day. Seems like the real-time notices would tend to fill up the mailbox.
Maybe I should switch to real-time. Is there a good reason?

When you're checking into the List many times a day
with some notion of staying current with conversations,
it's best to get the real-time dumps. The digest-
dump is faster, less expensive and more convenient
for people with dial-up . . . especially those who
need to access their ISP via a long-distance call.
I suspect those are now a very tiny proportion of
the List members . . . if not zero.
But one dump per day of the last 24 hours worth
of activity is pretty pedestrian for individuals
who enjoy perhaps several exchanges a day on a
topic.
There's another matter of tiny significance. Neophyte
List subscribers will sometimes reply to a digest-
dump thinking that they're only replying to one item
of interest in the dump but unless they know
to trim out the non-relevant postings, their reply
can be spectacularly verbose.
