Thank you; I could not have said it better nyself. Hopefully your letter will bring about a stop to all this. If it doesn't helpful or not, I AM out of here. My bandwidth can't stand it and my brain can't stand it! Thanks Again!

p { margin: 0; }If I didn't genuinely need this list to do my job I'd have dropped you whiners a month ago.

I am one of the troubled many who have been receiving the toaster list emails for some time now but have been unable to post due to quirks of the ancient "majordomo" list previously graciously hosted at mathworks.com. I have benefited hugely from the information I've seen on this list, and when I've needed to I've had a co-worker (who could post) forward my questions to the list. In most cases I've found this list to be a better troubleshooting tool than NetApp's premium support.

So I was delighted to see the list updated so that I'd be able to post, regardless of the letters following the "@" in the email address. I was grateful to see that someone had stepped up to solve the problem instead of whining about it. I'd often thought maybe it was time for someone else to take a turn at hosting the list but like the rest of us I somehow never quite got around to volunteering.

Frankly I don't care if the list is hosted under the domain "goatlove.xxx." I'm tempted to host a new list under that domain, frankly. Lucky for you nambla.org is taken.

I'd like to propose that this list, which I understand is intended for technical discussions of NetApp storage systems, be limited to technical discussions of NetApp storage systems. And that the rest of this bullshit stop.

Yours in political neutrality in technical arenas...
