Pat,
For some time, years, I've reading c.d.t and I'd swear I've posted on occasion, although I can't remember a specific post, but a short while ago I tried to reply to a post it it just never showed up. After several rounds with my news provider they said I would have to contact the moderator since posting is restricted. I'm hoping that's you and you'll grant me posting rights. Or tell me my provider is wrong.
Thanks, if you need any details let me know. I post/read from a few locations, typically with a name of RC and a phony from email address.
Thanks again,
RC
[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Your provider is correct. The c.d.t. news group on Usenet is moderated; I am the moderator. You can reply to a newsgroup posting or originate a new posting, doesn't matter, but it will come to me first before it goes out to the network. Like anyone else reading here, you do not need to be 'granted posting rights'; all you have to do is send me email either through the newsgroup or direct to my Digest email address snipped-for-privacy@telecom-digest.org.
Now a problem is posting with 'a name of RC and a phony from address'. You do not get back my auto-ack, or receipt for your submission. Use a good address if you want to know for sure if the submission was received. There are readers here (see one in this issue) who always ask me for an address in one of my domains (notchur.biz) to protect _them_ from the truckloads of spam delivered each day and the other diseased brain crackpots around here. You are welcome to do the same _but make sure the request is in the first line of your message_ so I do not miss it. In this message I did it automatically (gave you a 'notchur.biz' email address) which I usually do not do. PAT]
