When ever I tell Rob I'am having problems with this list
he always says that he has no problem and the list is
working fine. So here is the message that everybody is
getting intermittently when returning back from reading
a message.

      Welcome Guest!










                   No such list exists in our database.

  Last night the list was returning CAN NOT DISPLAY THIS PAGE
  messages.

   This must be some of their great improvements that
   took them 24 hours to install.

   I wish more users would complain so Rob knows that
   this list is maybe steering new users of Euphoria
   away from the langauge.

   PS I still see ADS on the list.

This is why you don't have a single problem.
    YOU DON'T USE the Web-user interface.

Hi Bernie,

I, like Derek, use the email option.  You don't get ADs in the email
anymore and I just find it easy to use.

If you really want web functionality with the advantages of email then get
yourself a web based email account set up just for the purpose of reading
the EUforum.  This is what I did.  I used the free service at
www.mailandnews.com but choose any free web email provider you like.  Here
is a good list of suggestions:

    http://www.emailaddresses.com/

Once you have a web based email account then subscribe to the EUforum list
in the usual way by sending a message to:

    EUforum-subscribe at topica.com

Now instead of struggling with Topica's web interface you can use your web
email account interface instead.

Just a suggestion for you and anyone else who doesn't like Topica's web
interface - just find an web email provider with an interface (and low AD
ratio) that you prefer instead.

Regards,

FP.
