more on the query command for the listserv software

I have now seen my own e-mails in my Yahoo! inbox and on the Clayart
web interface. Now I have returned my settings to NOMAIL.

Meanwhile, I gave an incomplete format for the "Query" command used to
find out what your personal settings are on Clayart.

What is needed is to send an e-mail from your Clayart subscription
address (none other will do, even if it belongs to you) and in the body
of the e-mail type:

[QUERY CLAYART ]
[END]

(with no brackets.)

Here are the results of my own latest query, now that I have gone back
to my NOMAIL settings:


..............................................................................................................................

QUERY CLAYART
Subscription options for My Name , list
CLAYART:

INDEX You receive short indexes of all postings
NOMAIL You have temporarily turned off your subscription and
will not receive any mail from the list

SHORTHDR Short mail headers with only "human friendly" fields
NOREPRO You do not receive a copy of your own postings
ACK Short e-mail acknowledgement of successfully processed
postings
REVIEW Your postings are forwarded to the list owner for
approval

Subscription date: 21 Jun 2006

> END
Remaining commands ignored.

listserv reply.)

For Earl, I have no easy suggestions, not knowing your browser security
settings, or how you you access your Yahoo! e-mail, nor the settings
you use there. It's true that I am using the yahoo.ca domain, not the
yahoo.com domain, and that I am not using the new "BETA" mail client
Yahoo! is promulgating, so there may be issues I'm unaware of.

All I can say is that yahoo.ca is not blocking Clayart posts, whether
individually or as digests or indexes.

One other idea occurs to me. If you allow Yahoo's SpamBlocker to
operate, and somehow in the past the software's got the information
that Clayart is Spam, then you could check this by allowing the mail
software to store what it thinks of as "Spam" in the Bulk mail folder,
which it will set up when you invoke the SpamBlocker utility. Then you
can see what's being considered as Spam.
