1. list problems
I think that if there were up to a hundred messages over the weekend then
that may be the problem with why I did not receive any of the digests
containing them. Being at Juno I can only receive messages up to 60k in
size. I think that the digest may have exceeded my limit and in turn was
bounced from my mail server. I have to have the digest though because I
really only check my mail twice a day and this would mean way too many
messages to handle otherwise. Oh well. If the mail list went usenet
then I would be able to control it because I can specify to the usenet
server to send me 60k chunks of the postings at specific times.

Have you checked alt.lang.euphoria?
There's never anything there (except spam).
Most news servers don't even carry it.

sorry for not addressing your real problem but i have a suggestion
nonetheless :>
go to http://www.softhome.net and get a free pop3 email address with
unlimited space... i know they're a little fucked around with
they're user names (mine's a00000hg), but if you just use it for this
listserv no one will have to worry about it anyway

I know what you mean by to many messages. I have the listserv set to
NODIGests for my subscription and am not loosing messages (at least I
don't think so). MIME encoded stuff comes through without a problem also.
If I don't have time to scan the messages received for the day I use DOS
to copy the inbox folder to a new file and then replace the inbox with a
blank one I have for just such purpose. This is not a problem since Juno
stores the messages as ASCII text. I bet a person could even write a
utility with Euphoria to read the messages. from the listserver. (naw I
don't have the time right now, wife and I both got downsized and we are
job hunting.)
Yes Juno's darn adverts are getting annoying and v1.38 has gotten slower
than molasses with its multiple file loads to display the ad banner. This
old 486/33 just can't keep up even with it 32MB of mem and a 10meg disk
cache. I guess that the price for "free" E-Mail.
