Re 113 re 109 (talking to himself?): Why should the error log be world
readable in the first place?

I've been getting mail normally from a couple mailing lists I'm on,
ebay, and any number of spammers. I use "cyberspace.org" as the host
part of my address.
Maybe you should temporarily turn off procmail and make sure it's not
deleting your mail for you.

At the risk of indulging in an exercise in futility, I'd like to not ethat
I keep getting items coming up which allegedly have new responses, but where
new responses are no-whee to be seen, and all i get is the title of the item
and the author.

Thanks for the explanation, but that might need a little more explaining! ;-)

Valerie wrote a script before she left that allows one to scribble and
expurgate one's responses en masse. Apparently that causes the items where
one's done so to come up new.

Ah, so that's what's happening. In that case, apologies to you, twila, for
the harsh tone in that other item.

I should say, too, that I didn't plan on doing this in the current agora. I
am not leaving Grex, but was upset by all of the hoopla this week.

This happens because when someone changes an item, it is considered as
something new. Valerie ran a program that erased her responses to a number
of items and that counts as a change, thus all those items come up as having
new responses.

You can do 'fixseen' for all those conferences where Valerie deleted her
responses.
I will check my procmail filter to see if I did something stupid, but normally
I would expect procmail to just send anything it caught to the bulk folder,
not delete it. I will ask for a copy of the bounced mails.
And try sending myself mail to grex from somewhere else.

re #115: my mail is mostly addressed to "mcnally@cyberspace.org"
I sent a test message to your account yesterday. Presumably you
haven't received it, but I got no bounce message.
I'd highly recommend turning off your procmail filter for a while
and testing whether you get mail without it..

Why are ancient item headings and responses appearing in many other
conferences without new responses being entered? Here is a brief selection
from the consumer cf:
> Item 90: Water Filters
> Entered by Valerie Mates (valerie) on Tue, Nov 4, 1997 (23:27):
> <expurgated & scribbled>
>
> 1 new of 22 responses total.
> #22 of 22: by Rane Curl (rcurl) on Sat, Feb 28, 1998 (13:36):
> They add chlorine *and* ammonia. Chloramine itself is a highly explosive
> liquid. The chloramine is formed in solution (no, its not explosive in
> solution).
> Respond or pass?
> Item 92: Advertising and public services
> Entered by C. Keesan (keesan) on Thu, Mar 5, 1998 (17:12):
> Respond or pass?
> Item 98: Looking for a plumber
> Entered by Valerie Mates (valerie) on Tue, Oct 27, 1998 (22:10):

It has caused me a considerable waste of time to run fixseen in a large
number of cfs that I watch.

Rane: Valerie decided to leave Grex, and to delete all the responses she's
ever made on Grex. So every item she ever responded to shows up as new.

Great... (that's a contradiction, so it is false but humerous, although
the extra dots are required to convey the sense in which it is said).
