Re: [EVDL] Test
I do have another unused gmail account that I used to use for troubleshooting. I did have that idea tonight too. I should be able
to have my e-mail client pull all the EVDL e-mails through that account (which should include mine from the other address) but
filter only e-mails coming from me back into my EVDL folder on my local machine. Talk about a round about hack to be able to get
some list mail to work right.
I agree we shouldn't have to do this to get functionality. Almost all of my other lists I monitor are working (oddly enough the
NEDRA list is doing the same thing and not mirroring to me) EVTech is working fine, its like I never left that one.
