[Javascript] ADMIN: JS-Jive causing problems with JavaScript postings

This is the JavaScript list and not the JS-Jive list. If you want to post 
to both lists, that is very fine (sometimes posting a question to two 
different lists will increase the chances of a good response/answer), but 
please do not put one of the addresses in the Bcc field. The Louisiana Tech 
servers are set up to deny Bcc postings on lists that are hosted by the 
servers. They are set up that way to reduce spam, since there are too many 
spammers that like using the Bcc fields. I can not change that.

Some people have joined the JS-Jive list thinking that they were joining 
the JavaScript list.

Others are joining the JS-Jive list by responding to the JS-Jive 
subscription posting to this list and in doing so are subscribing 
themselves to the JS-Jive list but the JS-Jive list records _their_ email 
address as _javascript at latech.edu_.

All of this is causing far too many bounced messages by the Tech server. 
Please do not sign up for the JS-Jive list from this list.

If you do post to both lists (which again, I have no problem with), please 
do not use the Bcc: field to place one of the list addresses in. Use the 
To: and the Cc: fields only.

If you want to join the JS-Jive list, go to 
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/JS-Jive/, and subscribe from there. Do not 
subscribe by responding to the "Please confirm your subscription" post that 
was sent to this list. That will cause posting problems for you.

If you have subscribed to the JS-Jive list in the last few days, please go 
to the JS-Jive list's Web site above and confirm that your email address is 
correct (and not listed as javascript at latech.edu). I will be working with 
the JS-Jive moderator about that very situation as well.

TTFN,
