Re: Moving Medit-Plants to a new list location

Following up what Bracey mentions.

You mentioned “a simple listserv” which I think means something fairly generic.

I take it this means you didn’t select Google Groups?

One reason that group appeals to me is for its various features, as Bracey mentions, there’s more control and options.  I belong to a couple of groups that I look at only via website , not by receiving email, and appreciate that feature.  

Also I’m wondering what this listserv allows for in terms of photos and other attachments?  Are they options?

Were you interested in finding out a bit more about features folks might find useful?

Thanks,
Carol

Hey folks -

So, I've been experimenting with various lists and now have a simple listserv that does the 'reply-to' the list as requested.  Testing has confirmed this.

Now to make the move - I can provide the new list provider with the names of current subscribers on this list, or you can individually subscribe yourselves.

A few folks have asked to be removed from this current list during this recent discussion, and I've noticed a few others silently unsubscribe.

If anyone decides they don't wish to participate in the new list, they can also unsubscribe or ask to be removed.

I have also talked with the keeper of the current list's archive on Hort.net about having the new list archived in the same place (so that both lists can be searched at the same time).

Any thoughts on the best way to make the move (mass list subscribe, or individual option)?

Also, when we move to the new list, be thinking about what sort of discussion you wish to happen there and consider how to post towards that goal.
