Mailing list still up ?

Posted in 2004

Summary

A user asked whether the Informix mailing list was still working, since he'd only received four messages the previous day. Replies confirmed the list was up and running normally with typical traffic. The rest of the thread was criticism of the poster's MIME/HTML message format, with one reply asking him not to use Microsoft Word to compose email. No technical Informix problem was involved and nothing further was resolved.

Yes, despite the efforts of some to clog it up with MIME postings, there seems to be a normal throughput for me.
