About techno-monastic | |
Welcome to the Techno-Monastic Mailing List!
-- then chances are that this forum may be of interest to you. Ordinary rules of civility apply and will if necessary be enforced by list admin.

How to subscribe to the techno-monastic list You can subscribe (or unsubscribe) yourself to the techno-monastic mailing list via this web page: http://mailman.gramstad.no/mailman/listinfo/techno-monastic . From this web page you will also find a link to the list archive. You will receive postings to the list by E-mail to your E-mail address as long as you are subscribed to the list. You can unsubscribe, change address, or change your subscription settings via the field at the bottom of the page ("Edit options..."). This mailing list is managed with the Mailman listserver. How to post to the list In order to post to the list, send your posting to this address: techno-monastic@mailmannospam.gramstad.no (remove "nospam" from the address). You will receive a copy of your own posting via the list when it is distributed. The first time you post something to the new list, your posting may be slow to go through - maybe up to 24 hours - because of an anti-spam measure at the new machine, known as greylisting, whereby the recipient machine checks to see if your machine/e-mail address responds/exists (spammers' don't, because they use forged sender addresses). If your posting is time-sensitive or you're just impatient, you can post your first posting a second time shortly after the first one, and the second one will go through right away (but so is the first one supposed to do, some time later). Do keep a copy of your first posting, in case something in the greylisting process breaks, and you need to resend your posting. No "rich text"/HTML and attachments All postings you receive via the list will be in the plain text (simple text) format, i.e., no rich text and few if any attachments (attached files), for easy readability anywhere and for your safety against viruses, spam etc. If your posting to the list contains rich text/HTML or attachments, those parts of your message will be automatically removed by the list server, and the remaining plain text part will be sent through to the list (when this is the case you will see that the layout in your posting has been changed/simplified). Attachments should generally be avoided on the list, and will in most cases be automatically stripped away. In general: place the multimedia item(s) that you want to distribute on a website, and then post the web address to the list. (Some list members may offer web hosting space for pictures and other documents - post to the list and ask if you need help with web publishing your material.) In a few cases, attachments may be OK. In such cases, the attached file must be very small (preferably less than 100 000 bytes, and certainly smaller than 300 000), and it must be in an open and harmless format (e.g., jpg, png, pdf). Postings with attachments will usually be subject to manual approval by list admin. The list archive is open to anyone, meaning that no password, login or the like is necessary to access the archive - just click on the link below like any other link on a web page. This also means that list postings are visible in and may be found via Google and other search engines. If you do not want your name publicly available in this way, please pseudonymize or anonymize your name in your postings (that is, in the header fields of your posting and in your signature, if any). As for your e-mail address, we will aim to cloak this, to protect you from spam etc. Use this web page to change your settings You can use this web page to sign up for the list. This web page can also be used to make changes to your subscription settings and preferences (including for example unsubscribing, and changing address (unsubscribe the old address, subscribe the new one), etc. - use the menu field at the bottom of this page ("Unsubscribe and edit options"). To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the techno-monastic Archives. |
