<h2 align="left"><a name="Users"></a>Shorewall Users Mailing List
Archives<br>
</h2>
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).&nbsp; 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.<br>

<h2><a name="Plain"></a>Please post in plain text</h2>
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!!<br>
<br>
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 <i>(expletive
deleted)</i> 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.<br>
<p align="left"> <b>Note: </b>The list server limits posts to 120kb.<br>

<h2><a name="Hijacking"></a>Please don't hijack another poster's thread</h2>
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.<br>

of the Mailing Lists</h2>
<p align="left">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:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p align="left">Follow the same link above that you used to
subscribe to the list.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p align="left">Down at the bottom of that page is the following
text: " To <b>unsubscribe</b> from <i>&lt;list name&gt;</i>,
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 "<b>Unsubscribe</b> or edit
options" button.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p align="left">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.</p>
