To one and all! If you are concerned because you are not receiving any messages from the vanagon list AND you want to determine if the list server is working, you only need to send the message "THANKS" (without quotation marks) to listserv@gerry.vanagon.com. IF the server is working you should you receive an immediate reply (30 secs to an hour, depending on traffic to the server), "YOU'RE WELCOME". If you DO NOT receive this response (do give the server some time if it isn't immediate) then it's time to contact Ron Lussier or Chris Smith directly. Email to vanagon-request is likely not to work because it gets processed by the same server that handles the list traffic, so if the list server is down ... well I hope you get the picture! Whereas email directly to us gets processed on a different system, practically never down. Your friendly neighborhood vanagon list admins, Ron Lussier (coyote@likeminds.com) Chris Smith (csmith@sdsc.edu)
