Re: [Digital BW] Will this forum ever get streamlined?

2005-03-26 by Linda Jacobs

I know this might not be a solution for others, but I recently
acquired a GMail account solely for the purpose of building a
searchable archive for my favorite yahoo groups. I have the email sent
to the gmail account.

If anyone wants a gmail invitation I have 50. PLEASE contact me offlist.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
