From 196c6c5551892f5a315d744aa78309a6889c63a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: teastep 2005-07-08 2005-08-14 Note: The list server limits posts to 120kb. The Shorewall Users Mailing list provides a way for
users to get answers to questions and to report problems. Information
of general interest to the Shorewall user community is also posted to
this list. Problem reports
-that do not include the information requested in the problem
-reporting guidelines will go unanswered (at least by the Shorewall
-author). To subscribe: https//lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/shorewall-users To post to the list, post to shorewall-users@lists.sourceforge.net.
-IMPORTANT: If you are not
-subscribed to the list, please say so -- otherwise, you will not be
-included in any replies. The list archives are at http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=2270. This list is for announcements of general interest to
-the Shorewall community. DO NOT USE THIS LIST FOR REPORTING PROBLEMS
-OR ASKING FOR HELP. To subscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/shorewall-announce.
- The Shorewall Development Mailing list provides a forum
-for the exchange of ideas about the future of Shorewall and
-for coordinating ongoing Shorewall Development. ONLY
-USE THIS LIST FOR REPORTING PROBLEMS WITH DEVELOPMENT RELEASES --
-REGULAR RELEASE SUPPORT REQUESTS SHOULD BE POSTED TO THE USER'S LIST. To subscribe to the mailing list: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/shorewall-devel. To post to the list, post to shorewall-devel@lists.sourceforge.net. The list archives are at http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=44517. The list archives are at pipermail/shorewall-devel. The list archives are at http://lists.shorewall.net/pipermail/shorewall-newbies. There seems to be near-universal confusion about
-unsubscribing from Mailman-managed lists although Mailman 2.1 has
-attempted to make this less confusing. To unsubscribe: Follow the same link above that you used to
-subscribe to the list. Down at the bottom of that page is the following
-text: " To unsubscribe from <list name>,
-get a password reminder, or change your subscription options
-enter your subscription email address:". Enter your email address in
-the box and click on the "Unsubscribe or edit
-options" button. There will now be a box where you can enter your
-password and click on "Unsubscribe"; if you have forgotten your
-password, there is another button that will cause your password
-to be emailed to you. Please note that the mail server at shorewall.net checks
-incoming mail: You can report such problems by sending mail to

-For several years, the Shorewall lists were moderated for non-member
-posts. I've found that this is a pain for me (I have to wade through
-the spam to find and approve legitimate posts). Additionally,
-non-members seemed to almost universally ignore instructions to mention
-that they were non-members in their post. Since the mailing lists are
-set up so that replies go to the list rather than to the poster, this
-means that most non-members who posted were not receiving their
-replies. So effective 2005-03-05, all Shorewall lists are closed to
-non-member posts.

-Please post in plain text
-A growing number of MTAs serving list subscribers are rejecting all
-HTML traffic. At least one MTA has gone so far as to blacklist
-shorewall.net "for continuous abuse" because it has been my policy to
-allow HTML in list posts!!
-
-I think that blocking all HTML is a Draconian way to control spam and
-that the ultimate losers here are not the spammers but the list
-subscribers whose MTAs are bouncing all shorewall.net mail. As one list
-subscriber wrote to me privately "These e-mail admin's need to get a (expletive
-deleted) life instead of trying to
-rid the planet of HTML based e-mail". Nevertheless, to allow
-subscribers to receive list posts as must as possible, I have now
-configured the list server at shorewall.net to strip all HTML from
-outgoing posts.
-This means that HTML-only posts will be bounced by the list server.
-
-Please don't hijack another poster's thread
-On shorewall.net as elsewhere, it is considered very bad netiquette to
-hijack another poster's thread by simply replying to a list post and
-changing the subject to a different one. Please start a new thread when
-you wish to introduce a new topic for discussion.
