Prefixes are a good idea gone bad. Better yet: Filter on this header:
X-BeenThere: cctalk at classiccmp.org
Does that work? There are two or three listmembers who insist on posting to
neither cctalk or cctech, which means that filtering on one or the other
doesn't *always* work. Maybe X-BeenThere is guaranteed to be filled in
correctly by the list server software, though.
What do you do when Life gives you lemons,
and you don't *like* lemonade?????????????
Pancakes.
Oh, and to the OP: welcome to the list :)
cheers
