I hate having
to log into web sites to post when I could have just sent
E-mail (likewise, I hate having to log in to read posts when they could be
mailed to me).
That could be solved by saving a cookie on your machine (if you so choose). If both can be
supported, fine, but I strongly prefer E-mail.
Would you tolerate putting a special 8-character authentication code
(automatically removed before delivery) into every ClassicCmp post to prove
that you were you? One of the things that prompted me to think about all
this was the inherent
spoofability of email. I feel a desire to find a way around it.
... I'm not sure if making list members go through complex gyrations for
this is the best approach, or what specific event prompted it.
This isn't a personal slam or anything, but so far in my opinion the new
list system has worked out well and I'm unsure why it needs to be 'fixed'
if it isn't (particularly) broken -- unless you and Jay know something new.
