Hi again everyone!

Here's some helpful information on how to reply to gatewayed board messages to this list.

These messages come to the list with this disclaimer at the top.

"This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list."

Which means that postings to the Message Board are copied to this list.

When responding to gatewayed or copied messages, you'll need to use the blue link provided in the body of the message to respond to the poster. In other words, you need to respond from the Board side.

If you send the reply back to the list only, the board poster might not see your reply if he/she is not subscribed to the list. Now with the address showing, you really need to go the Message Board to post your reply. You can no longer reply directly to the poster. You'll need to register a username and password before you can post to the Message Board. This is still a free service but the registration is to help discourage spammers on the board.

Also sometimes you can find the user's e-mail address on the Message Board by clicking on the highlighted in blue username in the top left corner of the posting.

Hope this helps!
