Dear administrators,
Once again Gmail users appear to have been disabled. Could you please help
and re-enable me and others who have been affected. It is only 3 or 4
months ago when this happened last. It would be nice if this could be fixed
permanently.
Thanks and best regards
Tom Hunter
I use gmail for any mail that incolves sending or receiving attachments.
For this list, I use PINE ("Pine Is Not Elm"?)
What I have been told is that Google/Gmail seems to often be an early
adopter of the "latest and greatest".
As such, problems will occur occasionally, due to changes made in Gmail.
And then EVERY BODY ELSE has to make changes to remain compatible with
Gmail.
So, if necessary, our service provider and or list software may need to
change occasionally.
In order to get a "permanent fix", we would have to have the list hosted
BY Google, or make changes to Google that might be extreme enough so as to
upset Homeland Security.
