The Groups .io is a good platform. One other tech group I am on migrated
to it with great joy off yahoo. Ed# KF7RWW

NCCC was having similar problems with our internal reflector and moved to

Your email was distributed by the reflector. Could the reflector emails be
caught in a spam filter on your end? As moderator, I receive notices of
bouncing messages. They often come in spurts, with several from the same ISP
bouncing at the same time. I don’t recall seeing any notifications for you.
W6WRT made me moderator of the RTTY reflector when he wanted to step down a
couple years ago. This reflector is very different than Yahoo Groups or the
increasingly popular Groups.io reflector. It's old technology, without the
features of Yahoo or Groups.io, such as files, HTML, etc. As moderator, I don’t
have a webpage that I can go to for a list of bouncing email addresses. After
the problem created when the owner of the DXLab Yahoo Group died, leaving only
a moderator with limited management options, I think it's prudent for all
reflectors to have at least two owners (for Yahoo Groups) or moderators (for
the contesting.com reflectors, such as RTTY). Because this reflector has
limited options, there's very little to be done by the moderator. Would one or
two like to step forward to be co-moderators? This group hasn't suffered from a
plethora of off-topic posts as some other reflectors have, making the
moderator's job easy. I hesitate to ask, but is there interest in creating a
similar reflector on Groups.io? I'm not aware of one there now. Unlike Yahoo
Groups, where a reflector can be moved with all its subscribers, messages,
etc., that capability doesn't exist for this reflector, so everyone would have
to subscribe to a new reflector. Groups.io has proven itself to be very
flexible and reliable. The 5000+ member N1MM+ Yahoo Group recently moved to
Groups.io after problems with delays in messages being forwarded. The RTTY
reflector has just over 1000 members. 73, Jim N7US -----Original Message-----

others in the area) have not been receiving postings from the RTTY Contesting

postings from individuals only. K2AL
