If one person sees this post, would you pls reply? My ISP carries this as a newsgroup, which I know it isn't, But I appear to receive all the posts that are made, albeit through the newsgroup. I've got my newsreader posting set to mail to debian-user@lists.debian.org, which I assume will work. OTOH, I've had no replies yet to anything I've posted. I suppose I could subscribe to the email list, but it seems pointless to have both a newsgroup and a mailing-list. Thank you, Nick
