[Firebird-docs] ATTN Lou, Jose, and all: better not post thru Atkin newsgroup

[Paul V. <pa...@vi...>]

Hi all,

The Atkin newsgroup interface to this and other lists is great for
browsing and reading, but it does suffer from hickups and delays. Jose
for instance posted two messages on January 3, but it took 5 days
before they appeared on the list. Lou posted a message on the 6th that
took 2 days to arrive. (Clearly there was a clog in the pipeline that
got removed, or decided to go away by itself, on January 8.)

This happens quite often if you post through the newsgroup interface.
So if you want your messages to arrive promptly, always send them by
EMAIL to fir...@li... - they'll usually show up
after a couple of minutes.


Greetings,
Paul Vinkenoog
