Please do NOT change the list to post=private. I post from other accounts
occasionally and would miss that flexibility. We receive very few
Oops. I've changed it. I've got to tromp across campus now to a class
in a faraway building but will think about this problem some more while
tromping (and perhaps while teaching, although I hope not). Meanwhile,
here's something you can do for the multiple-account problem: Subscribe
from all the accounts you're likely to post from but set all but one of
them to 'nomail'. I have multiple subscriptions to some lists, including
ADS-L, but get mail for only one of those subscriptions. I also am
subscribed to some lists that I leave set on 'nomail' all the time --
lists that have archives accessible to subscribers only. From time to
time I want to look for something in the Humanist archives, for example,
but I don't want to get Humanist mail. I've been a subscriber for years
without being bothered with any of the mail.
