[Mellotronists] newsgroup problems
2002-02-11 by Robert Webb
I'm afraid that I can no longer support this newsgroup.
1) There are too many emails to 'wade through' each time I 'receive' my emails (this last batch contained 70, after just being away two days).
2) I dislike the idea that many emails require being online to open them. I can't support paying for a telephone facility just to read emails. (Aha! you say, well just read them off line --- but I can't: my email client (Outlook Express 5) will re-dail the internet every time I try to open the formatted ones.
Its a shame, because I enjoyed being part of the group and reading much of the info others had to offer. (Incidentally, I had this same problem with one of the Hammond newsgroups).
Happy tronning,
Robert W
PS If you ever revert to ordinary email newsgroup please someone let me know.
